Our team

Our Corporate M&A team is one of Australia's leading transactional practices with extensive, market leading experience in all aspects of M&A, corporate and securities law (including Private Capital),

Our Private Capital practice sits within our M&A team. We act for a large and established client base of international and Australian sponsors and corporates, including advising prominent private equity sponsors, fund managers and institutional investors on buyouts, growth equity investments, co-investments, bolt-on acquisitions, portfolio company restructurings and exits.

We are seeking a Senior Associate to join our M&A team, focusing on Private Capital transactions.

Working closely with Lee Horan, Kimberly Low and Nick Kipriotis, you will work on complex, high‑value domestic and cross-border transactions for sponsor clients and corporates.

Coordinating due diligence processes and providing commercially focused risk advice.
Advising on deal structuring, regulatory matters and completion mechanics.
Mentoring junior lawyers and contributing to their development.
Building client relationships and supporting business development.

About you

You are a commercially minded Senior Associate with a passion for Private Capital transactions and broader M&A who thrives in a fast-paced, deal-driven environment.

To be successful in this role, you will have:

A current Australian practising certificate with approximately 5+ PQE in M&A and/or private capital at a leading law firm.
Experience advising on Private Capital transactions, including investments, buyouts, exits, and restructurings.
Strong drafting and negotiation skills across complex transaction documentation.
Excellent commercial judgment with the ability to provide clear, practical advice.
Ability to manage multiple workstreams and competing priorities.
Strong communication skills and a collaborative, team-oriented approach.
