THE ROLES ON OFFER

We are seeking highly motivated and detail-oriented Investment Compliance Analysts, Document Review Paralegals, and Funds Paralegals to join our legal team.

Investment Compliance Analyst

Our Compliance team "work like detectives" to uncover any potential threats to our clients prior to the completion of a transaction. They scan counterparty documents, look for red flags and note any politically exposed persons. They examine the corporate structures of counterparties, identify UBOs, and outline potential risks in legal memos. This role is excellent for building commercial awareness.

They track documents throughout their life cycle, draft first markups, communicate with counterparties, manage inboxes, and more. Senior paralegals are offered a lot of autonomy and may have the opportunity to take the lead on client accounts and lead contract negotiations.

Funds Paralegal

These paralegals are involved in preparing initial drafts of documents (transfer agreement, consent, subscription agreement), liaising with transfer parties on process and timings, reviewing comments on transfer agreements and subscription agreements, and assisting with running the execution process and general workflow management.

Compensation And Progression
