Funds Associate - 1-3PQE

New Yesterday

Job Description

Step into a role that offers early client contact, cross-border deal flow, and a fast track to meaningful responsibility - all within a high-performing US firm.


This is your chance to join a top-tier international platform known for its growth, profitability, and commitment to developing technically strong, commercially confident lawyers. With integrated teams across London, Paris, and New York, you’ll gain real exposure from day one.


Package

Strong base + class bonus (no billable hours target), with additional rewards for high-impact performance.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • International mandates spanning fundraising, secondaries, and investor-side work
  • Lean, collaborative London team with full cross-border exposure
  • Access to deals from $50m–$21bn - not just mega fund processing
  • Collegiate culture where junior lawyers are seen and supported


What You’ll Be Doing

  • Advise on private capital fundraisings and institutional investments
  • Take ownership of fund reviews and secondary transactions
  • Gain hands-on exposure to regulatory and tax alongside core transactional work
  • Work closely with partners and global clients from day one


What You’ll Bring

  • 1–3 PQE from a City, Silver Circle, or leading international firm
  • Experience in funds work is strongly preferred
  • Also open to strong candidates from regulatory or corporate backgrounds looking to pivot into funds
  • Strong legal analysis, commercial judgement, and a proactive, collaborative mindset
