Job description
C&C Search is currently recruiting a highly commercial and operationally focused Paralegal to join a fast-scaling private-markets fund manager in London.
This is an outstanding opportunity for a Paralegal with private equity, investment funds, asset management or wider private-markets experience to join the business at a pivotal point in its development. Having successfully launched its first fund, the firm is now preparing for the launch of a significantly larger second fund, targeting approximately £150 million to £250 million.
The successful Paralegal will work directly with senior decision-makers and play a visible role in supporting the legal, fund and operational requirements of the business. The level of experience is genuinely flexible. The priority is finding someone with the right attitude, commercial judgement, ownership mentality and understanding of private markets.
Company culture and what makes them great to work for
This is a lean, ambitious and entrepreneurial investment business where individuals are trusted to take responsibility and make a meaningful contribution.
The culture will suit a proactive Paralegal who enjoys working closely with senior stakeholders, driving projects forward independently and contributing beyond a narrowly defined legal remit. The successful person will have the opportunity to shape the position as the business grows, gaining exposure to fund launches, private equity operations and the wider development of an investment-management platform.
The firm is prepared to compensate competitively for an exceptional individual who brings energy, accountability, adaptability and genuine commercial value.
