Funds Lawyers - 2PQE + - Premium US firm in London - seeking Aus talent

Company: SSQ

Location: London

Posted: May 1st, 2026

A premier US law firm is growing its London private funds practice and they've made a deliberate decision to recruit top-tier Australian talent.

The firm is seeking to make several hires at various levels - from 2 PQE upwards - so whether you're at the stage of making your first international move or looking for a higher-calibre platform, this is worth a conversation.

The work covers the full alternatives universe:

• Private equity, venture capital and infrastructure funds

• Credit, real estate and hedge funds

• GP-led secondaries, co-investment vehicles and fund of funds

• Cross-border structures with sophisticated LP bases

These are genuinely complex mandates, sponsor-side work for global clients. The kind of matters that will accelerate your technical development and springboard your career. US firm compensation, fast-track progression and full relocation support on offer.

The firm have confirmed they want to consider Australia's premium funds talent.

If you are a funds lawyer in Australia and a relocation to London has crossed your mind at some point - I'd love to have a quick, no-obligation chat.
