About the role
Overview:
The role involves acting as a trusted advisor to innovative technology and life sciences companies, working directly with entrepreneurs, management teams, and investors to build the next generation of companies.
Associates provide day-to-day strategic and legal advice, often serving in an outside general counsel role, guiding clients through their full life cycle from incorporation and early-stage financings to growth, strategic transactions, and exit.
The work includes advising emerging growth companies on corporate and governance matters, representing companies and investors in venture financings and other equity transactions, and advising on mergers, acquisitions, and other strategic transactions.
The role involves working closely with founders, executives, and boards to help clients navigate legal and business issues as they develop.
Candidates should possess a genuine interest in technology and life sciences; a technical or science degree is not required.
Meaningful experience in venture capital, private equity, capital markets, or mergers & acquisitions is valued.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
