You will negotiate, document, and close bilateral and syndicated credit facilities, acquisition financings, and asset-based loans for non-bank lenders, private credit funds, and corporate borrowers. The work sits at the intersection of aggressive deal execution and careful borrower-side advocacy, demanding crisp drafting and a clear-eyed view of intercreditor dynamics.
What this firm is looking for
- 2 to 8 years of transactional experience in commercial finance, lending, or private credit
- Demonstrated ability to lead diligence, draft primary loan documents, and manage closing mechanics
- Strong academic credentials from an accredited law school
- Active bar membership in good standing, with eligibility to practice in Georgia
- Comfort communicating directly with C-suite clients, sponsors, and opposing counsel
