  • Provide oversight of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and related SEC regulations to prevent violations.
  • Annually file and amend the firm's ADV to meet SEC filing requirements.
  • Assist in managing regulatory examinations, investigations, and inquiries from FINRA, SEC, and state regulators, coordinating with regulators, auditors, compliance personnel, and business unit management.
  • Conduct compliance training to ensure alignment with applicable regulations.
  • Possess familiarity with technology and its implications for regulatory and compliance matters.
Qualifications:
  • Juris Doctor (JD) from a prestigious law school and active membership in good standing with the state bar.

  • In-depth knowledge of investment fund structures, including private equity, venture capital, private credit, and real estate funds.

  • Exceptional drafting and negotiation capabilities, with the proficiency to review and create complex legal documents accurately.
  • Outstanding analytical and problem-solving skills, with meticulous attention to detail.
  • Effective communicator, able to convey intricate legal concepts clearly and succinctly.
