You'll be joining our Compliance – Transactional team.
Working with the Head of Investment Compliance and an international team of ex-Big Law lawyers, paralegals, and analysts, you'll serve as the day-to-day legal contact for institutional investors and asset manager clients across private equity, infrastructure, credit, and real estate strategies.
At , our employees set out on a mission to unlock the power of equity ownership for more people in more places. We believe that the problems we solve today unlock the opportunities of tomorrow. As a Senior Transactional Lawyer, you'll work to:
Be the client's trusted deal-side compliance partner. Act as the primary day-to-day legal contact for institutional investors and asset managers — advising on compliance risk factors across live transactions with clarity and commercial pragmatism.
Unpack transaction structures that others can't. Work closely with private equity deal teams to understand complex deal anatomy, identify counterparties, and conduct multi-dimensional risk analysis — covering AML, bribery and corruption, financial crime, and reputational risk.
Investigate ownership and control to find what matters. Review fund structures, SPVs, partnerships, and trusts to map corporate ownership and fund flows — building a defensible compliance picture under deal timeline pressure.
Drive the materials process. Liaise with deal teams, legal, compliance, and relevant counterparties to gather what's needed to complete reviews on time, without losing rigour.
Ensure deals close compliantly. Collaborate with clients' legal and compliance teams to confirm that transactions meet AML/CTF regulations, internal policies, and jurisdictional requirements.
