n
Growth opportunity
n
sophisticated M&A;, private capital, funds and investment transactions
n
2-5 PAE
n
n
A unique opportunity for a corporate lawyer looking for something a little different.
n
I'm working on a role with a highly regarded international firm that is growing its corporate practice in Sydney.
n
The role sits within a specialist team working across Corporate M&A;, private capital, funds and investment structures, advising a mix of major corporates, institutional investors, fund managers and private capital clients.
n
And importantly, you don't need to be a Corporate Funds lawyer to be considered.
n
The team is particularly interested in lawyers with a strong core M&A; skillset who are keen to develop their experience in funds, private capital and structured investments.
n
The Role
n
You'll have exposure to a genuinely broad mix of transactions, including:
n
n
Corporate and asset-level M&A;
n
Private capital transactions
n
Fund and investment vehicle structuring
n
Joint ventures, consortiums and club arrangements
n
Platform acquisitions and disposals
n
Investment management and governance matters
n
n




You'll be involved across the transaction lifecycle from structuring and due diligence through to drafting, negotiation and completion with plenty of direct exposure to senior lawyers and clients.
n
What they're looking for
n
This would suit a lawyer with around 2-5 years' PAE who has built a solid foundation in corporate/M&A; and wants to continue developing technically and commercially.
n
You don't need to tick every box. In particular, direct corporate funds experience isn't essential.
n
They're looking for someone who is:
n
n
Strong technically, particularly across corporate transactions
n
Commercial and pragmatic
n
Confident drafting and negotiating
n
Comfortable working with sophisticated clients
n
Curious and keen to learn
n
A genuinely good team player
n
n
It's a growth role within a relatively lean team, so you'll get meaningful exposure rather than being lost in a large corporate group.
n
The work is sophisticated, the clients are excellent and there's a real prospect to develop a niche across M&A;, funds and private capital without having to completely step away from your corporate skillset.
n
If you're a corporate lawyer who has been wondering whether there might be something a little more interesting out there, this one is worth a chat.
