Job Description

As a mid-level corporate associate, you’ll advise on complex transactions across private equity, M&A, venture capital, and commercial deals—gaining real client access, cross-office responsibility, and the runway to grow into a lead advisor.

You’ll be joining a capital markets and corporate team that blends institutional dealmaking with a boutique’s flexibility. This is the kind of role where you’ll get in the weeds of negotiations, lead calls with founders and investors, and draft the documents that move markets—without getting lost in a mega-firm hierarchy.

Why This Role Catalyzes Your Growth

  • Diverse Deal Mix, Hands-On Exposure:

You’ll work across private equity, M&A, venture deals, and strategic joint ventures—often with direct access to C-suite stakeholders. Associates here are trusted early and given real ownership over commercial and corporate work.

  • National Platform, Mid-Market Focus:

The practice serves major players in media, tech, life sciences, and consumer goods—with transactions that range from growth capital infusions to strategic acquisitions and secondary sales.

  • Collaborative and Cross-Functional:

You’ll be part of a department that works closely across offices and practices, giving you visibility and mentorship from senior attorneys without layers of red tape.

  • Culture of Excellence Without Ego:

The team is high-performing but grounded. Partners invest in training, client contact is encouraged, and associates are trusted with responsibility at the pace they earn it.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • 3–4 years of experience at a law firm with exposure to M&A, private equity, VC, or joint ventures
  • Excellent drafting skills and commercial instincts
  • Comfortable managing multiple deals and communicating with clients and counterparties
  • Highly organized and proactive, with a team-first attitude
  • Admitted to practice in New York

Compensation

  • Competitive salary range: $235,000–$260,000
  • Bonus and performance incentives
  • In-office requirement: 3 days/week, including Wednesdays
  • Full benefits and career development support
