  • Engaging in cross-border work with the firm’s New York office, with opportunities to travel to the US.
Requirements
  • NY-qualified lawyer, currently practicing in London at a Magic Circle, Silver Circle, international, or peer US firm.
  • Strong academic background.
  • 2+ Years of experience in private fund formation, structuring, and institutional investor representation.
