Our Australian offices continue to grow, with teams based in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth. We remain committed to deepening our presence in the market, in step with the needs of our private capital clients.

Our Investment Funds team advises many of the world's leading private capital sponsors.

The Role

Our Sydney office is seeking Associates with 3-6 years’ fund formation experience. Our Australian specialists are active in private capital fund formation and secondary activities, and lawyers joining our team will work on complex fund formation matters, co-investments, and secondary transactions.

We are seeking candidates with

• Strong experience representing private fund sponsors and institutional investors (preferably international) on aspects of the fund cycle, including structuring, side letter negotiations, and wind-up
• A commercial appreciation of the importance of investing in client relationships
• The ability to communicate confidently across the Firm, with a pragmatic, friendly, and down-to-earth approach
• An excellent academic record
• A commitment to teamwork
