Corporate Funds Associate (Junior to Mid-Level)

Location: New York, NY

Salary: $260K – $365K

Advert Code: MLFS192

A leading global law firm is seeking a junior to mid-level Corporate Funds Associate to join its highly regarded private funds practice in New York. This is an exceptional opportunity to work alongside top-tier attorneys advising a sophisticated client base that spans industries and investment strategies.

This role offers early responsibility, meaningful client exposure, and the chance to develop within a nationally recognized funds platform known for its collaborative culture and high-caliber work.

What You’ll Do

  • Advise sponsors and investment managers on the formation, structuring, and operation of private investment funds
  • Work across a variety of fund types, including private equity, hedge funds, and other alternative investment vehicles
  • Support regulatory and compliance matters related to investment management
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams on complex, high-value transactions
  • Engage directly with clients and contribute to strategic decision-making

What They’re Looking For

  • 3–5 years of experience in corporate law, ideally with exposure to private funds or investment management
  • Strong academic credentials from a top-tier law school
  • Excellent drafting, analytical, and communication skills
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
  • A proactive, team-oriented mindset with a high level of professional accountability
  • Admission to the New York Bar (or eligibility to obtain admission promptly)
  • J.D. required, along with prior experience working in a law firm

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Work within a premier private funds practice with a national reputation
  • Exposure to a diverse and sophisticated client base
  • Clear path for professional growth and advancement
  • Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package
  • Supportive and collaborative team environment that values initiative and excellence

This is an ideal role for an associate looking to deepen their funds expertise while gaining meaningful responsibility in a dynamic and high-performing practice.
