    Default job background
    Description

    Our client is a prominent alternative investment firm based in Chicago with a proven track record of delivering innovative financing solutions and superior returns. They are seeking a Vice President to join their Litigation Finance team in the Chicago office.

    About Litigation Finance:

    Litigation finance is an emerging asset class that provides third-party capital to law firms and parties involved in legal disputes. It encompasses a range of financing options, from funding single cases to large-scale law firm loans. Litigation finance investments span various areas of law, including mass torts, intellectual property, bankruptcies, and international arbitrations. This asset class is attractive to investors due to its potential for uncorrelated returns and the inefficiencies present in the legal finance market.

    Key Responsibilities:

    Source, underwrite, negotiate and manage unique legal finance deals

    Collaborate with the investment team to develop and execute innovative strategies

    Conduct in-depth quantitative and qualitative analyses for deal underwriting and structuring

    Build relationships with top law firms, executives, and institutional investors

    Develop financial models to assess potential transactions and portfolio companies

    Support due diligence efforts, including business analysis and risk assessment

    Create investment memos and presentations for internal and external stakeholders

    Oversee portfolio companies and drive value creation initiatives

    Provide leadership and mentorship to junior team members

    Qualifications:

    Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or related field from a top-tier program

    2+ years of experience in investment banking, private credit, mezzanine, or private equity

    Proven excellence in financial modeling, legal analysis and deal negotiations

    Ability to lead cross-functional teams and manage junior staff

    Exceptional communication, relationship-building and stakeholder management skills

    Entrepreneurial mindset, intellectual curiosity and drive to excel

    Our client offers a dynamic, collaborative culture where talent and initiative are valued and rewarded. The firm is known for its creative problem-solving, rigorous analysis, and unwavering commitment to delivering outstanding results for investors. Team members have unparalleled opportunities for professional growth and significant impact in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.

    The firm provides highly competitive compensation and benefits, as well as the opportunity to work with a world-class team at the forefront of the alternative investment space. The role is based in Chicago but offers flexibility for relocation.

    The Glide Group is an Equal Opportunity Employer and takes pride in maintaining a diverse environment. We do not discriminate in recruitment, hiring, training, promotion or any other employment practices for reasons of race, color, religion, gender, national origin, age, sexual orientation, marital or veteran status, disability, or any other legally protected status.
