Inside the Fintech market.

Our proprietary Titan AI maps the relevant field first; experienced consultants qualify it by hand. The figures describe the talent market we cover.

500+
lawyers with fintech experience

Fintech is not a subset of financial services law — it is a discipline of its own, where payments infrastructure, digital assets, embedded finance, and regulatory technology converge at a pace that most conventional hiring processes cannot match. The lawyers who excel here hold a rare combination: deep regulatory literacy across banking, e-money, and market-structure frameworks alongside the commercial fluency to work with founders, engineers, and compliance teams in the same breath.

We map 500+ lawyers with documented fintech experience across the full spectrum — licensing and e-money authorisations, open banking and API commercialisation, crypto-asset regulation, BNPL structuring, and cross-border payments. Our coverage spans practitioners at every seniority, from associates who have grown up inside specialist fintech practices to partners who have advised on category-defining licensing applications and M&A exits.

Because we work from a continuously maintained talent map rather than a reactive database, we can surface candidates with the precise regulatory or transactional profile a fintech mandate requires — including lawyers not actively looking, who represent the most consequential hires in a thin specialist market.

Fintech recruitment — common questions

How do you find fintech lawyers who are not actively on the market?

Our research function maintains a live map of 500+ lawyers with verifiable fintech experience, built through direct engagement rather than job-board monitoring. Because most high-calibre specialists in payments, crypto regulation, or e-money licensing are not circulating their CVs, proactive mapping is the only reliable way to reach them. We approach candidates confidentially and with a specific mandate, which produces a materially higher response rate than advertised search.

How many live fintech roles does Sartori & Partners have?

We have 1242 live fintech roles across our coverage, spanning 745 partner-level and 497 associate or counsel positions. Mandates in this area are typically confidential and off-market — these are only the roles we are actively able to share. Contact us to discuss what else is live.

What compensation do fintech roles typically offer?

Based on current live mandates, fintech role compensation in the US runs $100k–$550k. This reflects only the roles where the hiring organisation has authorised us to share a range publicly — many mandates are structured around the right candidate rather than a fixed band.
