Emerging Growth / Venture Capital / Tech Transactions Partner – Denver

A partner-level appointment on this brief is decided by what the practice can carry across, more than on any single number.

We are working with a prominent U.S. law firm seeking an experienced partner to join its Denver office. This role focuses on emerging growth, venture capital, and technology transactions, serving startups and high-growth companies.

• Represent issuers and investors in venture capital and equity financings, M&A, and general corporate matters for technology and emerging growth companies.
• Advise on the full spectrum of corporate and securities matters common to venture-backed companies, including formation, governance, and transaction structuring.
• Build and lead a practice with the support of a collegial, collaborative, and business-driven partnership.
• Contribute to a firm culture that prioritizes being "really good humans" and living its stated values of mutual support, client service, and community engagement.

• Book of business history and trajectory will be a key factor—candidates whose venture/emerging growth practice is growing are strongly preferred.
• Portable book of business of $2M+ (USD)
• Senior-level experience in emerging growth, venture capital, and technology transactions, ideally with an existing book of clients.
• Proven record as a mentor and team builder; ability to collaborate across practice groups and offices.
• Comfort with a fully closed, non-formulaic compensation system, where partners are evaluated annually by a compensation committee.
• Willingness to work primarily from the office, with hybrid flexibility; fully remote is not the norm.
• Exhibits the firm's culture-first ethos—positive, supportive, and collaborative, with no ego.

Everything is held in confidence and no detail leaves us without your explicit approval.
