Investment funds is one of the few corporate practices where the client relationship compounds — the sponsor whose fund you form this year is the one calling about secondaries, SMAs, and the next vintage for a decade after.
A Global 100 firm is hiring an investment funds associate (3–6 years) in New York, Chicago, Washington, DC, San Francisco, Los Angeles, or Austin. Cravath scale — $260K–$390K depending on class year.
You'd sit in a market-leading funds group advising sponsors and institutional investors on domestic and international private equity, venture capital, real estate, and hedge funds — with a heavy secondaries docket and real ownership of your own workstreams.
The work includes:
- Formation and operation of domestic and offshore private equity, venture capital, real estate, and hedge funds
- Secondary transactions on both sides of the market — sponsor-side and investor-side representations
- Fund investments on behalf of institutional investors
- Structuring separately managed accounts and carried interest vehicles
What you bring:
- 3–6 years of investment funds experience, ideally at an AmLaw 100 firm
- Real reps on secondaries — sponsor-side, investor-side, or both
- Working command of fund structures: LPAs, side letters, SMAs, carry vehicles
- Bar admission in the market where you'd sit
What you get:
- A market-leading funds platform serving both sponsors and institutional investors
- A specialized, portable practice — fund clients return every vintage
- Cravath scale ($260K–$390K depending on class year)
