M&A Associate – Private Equity

 

A top-tier international law firm is seeking exceptional mid-level and senior associates to join its Corporate Mergers & Acquisitions practice in New York.

 

This is a unique opportunity to work on high-profile transactions across acquisitions, divestitures, mergers, joint ventures, private equity funds, and financial institutions.

 

As part of this elite team, you will take a leading role in due diligence, drafting key agreements, and managing all aspects of complex transactions—working closely with prestigious clients and top legal minds in the industry.

 

You'll gain exposure to key partners and clients to make sure you're obtaining a well rounded and in depth knowledge of the M&A Private Equity market. The group isn't huge, meaning there is ample opportunity to progress throughout the firm.

 

What We’re Looking For:

 

  • 3-6 years of hands-on M&A experience at a comparable firm
  • Understanding of the Private Equity market
  • Strong expertise in drafting and negotiating primary deal documents
  • Proven ability to lead diligence efforts and oversee transaction workflows
  • Admission to the New York Bar and outstanding academic credentials

 

What We Offer:

 

  • Highly competitive salary: $225,000 – $435,000 (based on experience)
  • The chance to work on headline-making deals with global impact
  • A culture that values collaboration, innovation, and professional growth
  • Commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, ensuring every lawyer has the opportunity to succeed

 

If you’re ready to take your M&A career to the next level with a firm that truly invests in its people, we’d love to hear from you.
