  • Admission to practice in New York
  • 5+ years of investment funds and/or broker-dealer regulatory experience with at least 4 years of rigorous law firm experience
  • Deep understanding of offering and governance documents (PPMs, subscription agreements, governing documents) for complex structures
  • Experience with registered investment funds and/or private investment funds, understanding of the fundamentals of the Investment Company Act and its exemptions
  • Passion for learning, building, and problem-solving
  • Exceptional communication skills that foster clear understanding of complex subjects
