    Description

    A leading US law firm is seeking a mid–senior level Funds Associate to join its London office, working within a highly regarded private funds and sponsor-side practice that operates seamlessly across London, New York and key global financial centres.

    This role offers exposure to a market-leading, execution-focused private funds platform, advising sophisticated sponsors on core fund formation and a wide-ranging funds lifecycle practice, including GP-level and strategic transactions. The team is known for handling complex, high-value mandates for premier private equity, growth, credit, infrastructure and special situations sponsors.

    The Role

    The successful candidate will play an integral role in advising sponsors on:

    • Core private funds formation, including the establishment and structuring of private equity, credit, growth, infrastructure and hybrid vehicles
    • Sponsor-side execution, acting as a lead associate on fundraises from first close through final close
    • Carried interest and incentive arrangements, including bespoke carry, co-investment and executive participation structures
    • Secondaries transactions, including GP-led restructurings, continuation vehicles and liquidity solutions
    • GP-level and sponsor transactions, such as GP stake sales, strategic investments, spin-outs and internal reorganisations
    • Ongoing fund lifecycle matters, including amendments, investor negotiations, regulatory structuring considerations and strategic advice

    The role is hands-on and responsibility-driven, with associates expected to run workstreams, manage junior lawyers, and liaise directly with clients.

    Candidate Profile

    • Typically 4–7 PQE (flexible for strong candidates)
    • Strong sponsor-side private funds experience gained at a leading US, Magic Circle or top-tier international firm
    • Proven exposure to fund formation and fundraising, with experience across carry and GP-level matters strongly preferred
    • Commercial, technically confident, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced, execution-heavy environment
    • Ambitious, collaborative and keen to develop within a high-performance US platform
