Job Description

Global Trade Senior Associate — Washington, DC

Our AmLaw 100 client, recognized as a top firm in the international trade and regulatory space, is seeking a standout Senior Associate to join its Global Trade practice in Washington, DC.

This isn’t your average sanctions advisory seat. This role is designed for attorneys who thrive at the intersection of global regulatory regimes, cutting-edge tech, and fast-moving corporate deals. If you know how to navigate OFAC like a pro and have advised crypto platforms or fintech disruptors on compliance issues, this is the one you’ve been waiting for.

What You'll Do:

  • Counsel elite clients — including major players in tech and cryptocurrency — on U.S. economic sanctions, especially those administered by OFAC.

  • Support complex cross-border transactions and corporate structuring with regulatory precision.

  • Partner closely with deal teams to ensure sanctions considerations are seamlessly integrated into global M&A and financing work.

Who You Are:

  • A mid-to-senior associate with robust experience in economic sanctions and export controls.

  • Comfortable advising on OFAC issues, particularly in the context of high-growth sectors like crypto and tech.

  • Experienced working on corporate deals, ideally in a BigLaw setting.

  • JD from a top-tier law school with exceptional academic credentials.

  • Member of the DC Bar or eligible for prompt admission.

Why Join:

  • You'll be part of a high-caliber team known for shaping the conversation around global trade and economic sanctions.

  • The platform supports entrepreneurial lawyers ready to build and own key client relationships.

  • Sophisticated work, marquee clients, and direct exposure to leadership — without waiting in line.

If you're ready to practice at the forefront of law, tech, and global trade, let’s talk.
