  • Proven ability to originate or substantially contribute to deal flow (portable book of business preferred);
  • Experience advising sponsors on platform deals, bolt-ons, acquisition financings or fund formation;
  • Comfort collaborating with tax, IP and regulatory teams on cross-disciplinary transactions.
