    Description

    Position: Corporate Paralegal, M&A/ECVC

    Location: San Francisco

    Onsite Logistics: Hybrid

    Salary: $135,000 - $175,000 with additional OT and Annual Bonus

    A highly respected AmLaw-caliber law firm is expanding its San Francisco corporate platform and is seeking a Senior Corporate Paralegal with deep experience supporting M&A, emerging companies & venture capital (ECVC), and fund formation matters.

    This role is built for a high-performing paralegal who operates as a true extension of deal teams—someone trusted on complex transactions, not just execution.

    Why This Role Is Different

    • Top-of-market compensation for elite paralegals ($140,000–$175,000+ depending on experience)
    • Consistent exposure to sophisticated M&A, VC financings, and fund formation work
    • Work directly with market-leading partners and repeat institutional clients
    • Strong infrastructure, staffing, and respect for senior paralegal judgment
    • Clear expectation of autonomy, ownership, and technical excellence

    Core Responsibilities

    • Support M&A transactions from LOI through closing (buyer- and seller-side)
    • Manage ECVC financings, including stock issuances, cap tables, and closing mechanics
    • Assist with fund formation matters, including entity formation, regulatory filings, and investor documentation
    • Draft, review, and coordinate transaction documents and closing sets
    • Maintain and manage cap tables, equity records, and corporate governance materials
    • Prepare and file state, federal, and regulatory filings
    • Coordinate multi-party closings, signature packets, and post-closing deliverables
    • Serve as a key liaison between attorneys, clients, and external stakeholders

    Preferred Qualifications:

    • 4+ years of corporate paralegal experience in BigLaw or elite mid-market firms
    • Demonstrated strength in M&A and venture-backed company work
    • Fund formation exposure strongly preferred
  • Work in company
