  • The responsibilities of an AWM Private Legal team member include advising on the structuring and execution of transactions, assessing legal and reputational risks, managing diligence processes, analysing diligence issues that are identified to develop remediations for them, reviewing and negotiating documents, coordinating with outside counsel and resolving issues that arise during the course of a transaction.
  • AWM Private Legal members play a critical role in responding to regulatory changes and advising on business practices, policy development and implementation, training, compliance/best practices initiatives and the development of standard procedures and documentation.
  • AWM Private Legal assists in developing new products and transactional structures by advising on applicable law, assessing legal and regulatory risks, raising and resolving relevant legal and policy issues, assisting in coordinating appropriate areas within Goldman Sachs and acting as liaison with outside counsel and regulatory bodies.

REQUIREMENTS

  • Qualified Lawyer with 7 – 12 years PQE.
  • Candidates will need to demonstrate a strong grounding in equity and/or debt investing deals. Real estate investing and fundraising experience will also be highly regarded.
  • Relevant post-qualification experience either with a top tier law firm or as in-house counsel.
