How our sorting works

The order in which job vacancies are displayed is determined by a composite score based on the following factors:

  • Keyword Relevance: How well your search terms match the vacancy details. We prioritize matches found in the job title, followed by job requirements, location names, and educational levels. Matches within general employer information or the organization's name carry a lower weight.
  • Commercial Prioritization (Premium Jobs): Vacancies paid for by employers ('Premium' or 'Sponsored') receive a ranking boost and will appear higher in the search results.
  • Recency (Date Relevance): Newer vacancies are prioritized. The relevance score of a vacancy is reduced by half once the posting is older than 30 days.
  • Proximity (Distance Relevance): Vacancies located closer to your search location are ranked higher. For vacancies located more than 30 km from the search center, the relevance score is halved.
The final ranking is established by multiplying all these individual factors to calculate the total relevance score.

    A leading global financial advisory firm is seeking a commercially minded transactional lawyer to join its Legal team, supporting its highly regarded Private Capital Advisory business.


    This is a unique opportunity to become embedded within a market-leading deal team, providing legal support across complex private capital transactions and working directly with senior stakeholders throughout the transaction lifecycle.


    The successful candidate will act as a trusted legal adviser, supporting deals from initial mandate through to execution and closing. This is a role for a lawyer who enjoys being close to the business, understanding commercial objectives and providing practical, solutions-focused advice.

    You will have the opportunity to:

    • Work alongside a leading private capital advisory team in the global secondary market.
    • Gain exposure to complex GP-led and LP-led secondary transactions.
    • Partner directly with senior deal professionals and business leaders.
    • Take ownership of legal processes and help drive efficient transaction execution.


    What They’re Looking For

    This role will suit a commercially minded transactional lawyer who wants to move closer to the business and play a key role in deal execution.


    The position would suit lawyers from a range of backgrounds, including:

    • Private Funds – experience advising sponsors, investors or private capital businesses on fund-related transactions, secondaries or restructurings.
    • M&A – strong transaction execution experience and the ability to manage complex deal processes.
    • Banking / Finance – experience supporting sophisticated financial transactions in a fast-paced environment.


    The key requirement is a lawyer with strong commercial judgement, a proactive approach and the ability to operate as a trusted business partner.


    What’s On Offer

    • A highly competitive six-figure base salary with an attractive bonus opportunity.
    • The opportunity to join a globally recognised advisory platform with a market-leading reputation.
    • Direct exposure to senior stakeholders and complex, high-value transactions.
    • An ideal opportunity for a lawyer making their first move in-house or an experienced transactional lawyer seeking greater ownership, visibility and commercial impact.
