Top ranked in the leading legal directories and a past recipient of The Lawyer "Competition Team of the Year" award, the Regulation and Markets Group works with clients on UK and EU competition law, and state aid issues, in both advisory and contentious matters across a wide range of industry sectors, such as utilities, media, sport and financial services. In parallel, the group provides expert advice on the UK and EU sectoral regulatory regimes for key network industries, notably in power, water and telecoms and, increasingly, payment services.

He or she will be an enthusiastic team player, with a passion for his or her subject, a commitment to high standards and an ability to take on responsibility and meet challenging client demands.
