Project Development & Finance
Within this product group, we advise on project development and project finance in sectors such as energy, infrastructure, natural resources, and transport. You will work on complex projects where contractual agreements, financing structures, regulation, and risk management converge.
Our work includes, among others, project and financing documentation, public-private partnerships, multi-source financing, risk allocation, and regulatory issues. We advise sponsors, financiers, governments, contractors, and investors on greenfield and brownfield projects, including projects that contribute to the energy transition.
You will often work together with colleagues from, among others, construction, environmental, tax, regulatory, and disputes, so that clients receive integrated advice from development through to financing and execution.
Qualifications
Are you ambitious and proactive and do you want to work at the top of the international legal profession? Furthermore, are you in the final stage of your Dutch law studies (Bachelor or Master)? Then we are looking for you!
