Familiarity with middle-market deal structures is strongly preferred.

The successful candidate will have strong interpersonal and communication skills, a high degree of maturity and business sense, and the ability to effectively manage internal and external client relationships. Excellent academic credentials are required; large national or international law firm experience is preferred. The firm offers a collegial atmosphere and a large international platform with tangible opportunities for professional growth.

  • 2–5 years of M&A and private equity experience.
  • Juris Doctor from an ABA-accredited law school.
  • Must be licensed, or ready to become licensed, in the jurisdiction of the hiring office.
  • Must reside in the designated jurisdiction at or prior to the time of hire.
