- Review and track investor subscription documents; support onboarding and fund closings
- Draft fund‑related agreements including transfer and secondary transfer documents
- Compile side letter compendiums and manage MFN (most favored nation) election processes
- Support AML/KYC processes and ongoing fund compliance obligations
- Monitor regulatory developments and advise on best practices in private funds
- Work across diverse fund structures: PE, hedge funds, private credit, and emerging asset classes
What We're Looking For
Required
- JD from an accredited law school; NY Bar admitted (or willing to obtain/transfer)
- 8+ years of total legal experience in private funds or investment management
- 5+ years at a large law firm (BigLaw) in an Investment Management or Private Funds group

- Expert‑level drafting of LPAs, PPMs, subscription documents, side letters, and IMAs
- Knowledge of the Investment Advisers Act, Investment Company Act, Securities Act, and ERISA
Strongly Preferred
- In‑house experience at a hedge fund, PE firm, or asset manager
- Familiarity with AML/KYC compliance and investor onboarding processes
- MFN election process and side letter compendium management experience
- Ability to work independently with minimal supervision in a remote environment
