Position Summary
The Transaction Support Group (“TSG”) team at General Atlantic plays an essential role in the coordination, execution, implementation, and management of transactions throughout the life of a fund. This function will sit both in the Energy and Infrastructure asset class and the wider TSG team, which comprises three core team members. The objective of this role is to introduce efficiency to the entire investment process by supporting deal teams in navigating legal, compliance, tax, and regulatory requirements during the origination, execution, investment management, and exit stages. This position becomes a key “enabler” and main point of contact between deal teams and other functional teams across the General Atlantic platforms (legal, tax, compliance, SPV governance, funds services, finance functions), as well as external advisors where applicable.
Responsibilities
- Be a critical part of the deal management function. This will require involvement on multiple levels, including instructing legal advisors, assisting on internal approval processes, ensuring the set-up of investment vehicles (SPVs), flow of funds procedures, execution of documents, and director briefings.
- Manage legal processes, including non-disclosure agreements, term sheets, engagement agreements, briefing of external counsel, and regular interaction with the General Atlantic Legal team and preferred legal advisors.
- Build and maintain relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
- Assist in the coordination of compliance-related matters such as customer due diligence and other regulatory requirements implemented by the General Atlantic Compliance team and supported by preferred legal advisors.
- Work closely with the SPV Governance team and service providers who manage SPVs in various jurisdictions, including Mauritius, Luxembourg, and Singapore, to ensure transactions are concluded in line with TSG’s best practices.
- Immerse yourself in your asset class, your deal teams, and understand the intricacies and moving parts of each transaction, including a high-level understanding (or ability to learn fast) of legal, tax, commercial, and governance-related matters.
- Present on the status of transactions at quarterly management meetings of the Energy and Infrastructure teams.
