    Description

    A rapidly growing, credit-focused asset manager is seeking a Legal Associate. The firm invests across a range of alternative credit strategies, including CLOs and ABS, with an entrepreneurial and collaborative culture that offers strong visibility and impact.

    The Legal Associate will work in the Legal & Compliance team, report to the General Counsel, and support senior investment professionals and the firm's business units across a wide range of corporate, client (SMAs, private and registered funds), and transactional matters. This is a hands-on role ideal for a motivated junior attorney looking to gain broad in-house exposure within a sophisticated credit platform.

    • Assist with the negotiation and execution of various agreements, including vendor and service provider contracts
    • Support legal and operational processes related to fundraising, compliance, and entity formation
    • Handle KYC/AML documentation and related administrative legal tasks
    • Conduct legal research and support internal governance documentation
    • Liaise with external counsel and service providers as needed

    Qualifications

    • 2–3+ years of legal experience at a law firm or in-house (preferably asset management)
    • Exposure to fund formation, credit, or structured products is a plus, but not required
    • Strong organizational and communication skills, attention to detail, and willingness to work in a fast-paced environment
    • Proactive, resourceful, and eager to learn the inner workings of a growing investment firm

    Compensation: $130-170K base (commensurate with experience) plus bonus and competitive benefits package.

    This role is onsite 5 days a week in Manhattan.
