Coordinate and manage outside counsel, including management of legal costs; maintain relationships with outside counsel and oversee the internal approval of all legal counsel.
Qualifications
Mid‑Senior level attorney with 5–15 years experience in at least one of the following two areas: commercial real estate (financing) or transportation (financing and/or investing in aircraft, ships or other assets); experience with other secured asset‑based finance areas is preferred, but not required.
Strong desire to have direct involvement in other asset‑based investment and financing strategies.
Progressive experience in commercial real estate and/or transportation (primarily aviation and shipping) investment and finance, ideally with in‑house legal experience at a multi‑strategy investment manager.
Juris Doctor degree (or equivalent), and membership in good standing with the New York State bar (or ability to waive into the New York State bar).
Familiar with all aspects of cross‑border and international asset‑based investment and finance transactions, including a familiarity with issues related to taxation.
Demonstrated ability to appropriately assess and manage legal and reputational risk, and demonstrate sound judgment in resolving such matters.
Ability to thrive in a fast‑paced, dynamic, and demanding open‑office environment.
Ability to prioritize efficiently and manage a complex, time‑sensitive workload.
Excellent attention to detail and accuracy.
The average salary for this role is $175,000–$300,000 in base pay and is exclusive of any bonuses and benefits which are also part of the compensation package.
