The Role
The successful candidate will work closely with senior members of the firm's global Investment Funds & Private Capital practice, gaining exposure to a broad range of complex private capital matters across the US, UK and international markets.
The practice has particular strength in:
- Private equity and private investment funds
- Private debt, private credit and direct lending
- Real estate, infrastructure and venture funds
- Fund formations and launches

- Co-investments and carried interest arrangements
- Structured credit and CLOs
- Investment management and regulatory matters
The team operates as part of a genuinely international platform, working closely with colleagues across the US, Europe and Asia.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Why This Opportunity?
The practice has an exceptional client base comprising leading global asset managers, fund sponsors and institutional investors, and is particularly active in the rapidly growing private credit and alternative capital markets.
Associates benefit from exposure to sophisticated transactions across the private capital spectrum, rather than being limited to a traditional fund formation role. The team works closely with the firm's market-leading Private Equity practice and has access to dedicated tax and regulatory expertise.
Recent matters have included complex private debt continuation vehicles and large-scale senior credit secondary programmes, reflecting the calibre and sophistication of the work handled by the team.
Candidate Profile
The ideal candidate will be:
- A qualified solicitor with strong Investment Funds / Private Capital experience from a US law firm
- Ideally 2–6 years' PQE, although exceptional candidates outside this range will be considered
- Experienced in fund formation, private capital transactions and/or related investment management matters
- Interested in developing a broader practice across private equity, private credit and alternative investments
- Commercially minded, technically strong and comfortable working on sophisticated international transactions
- Ambitious and keen to develop their career within a leading US platform

The Opportunity
This is a standout opportunity to join an Elite US practice with a market-leading private capital platform, working alongside highly regarded partners and sophisticated institutional clients.
The role offers excellent exposure to complex international transactions, significant responsibility and the opportunity to build deep expertise across some of the most active areas of the private capital market.
