Associate – Healthcare M&A / Corporate Transactions

A nationally recognised U.S. law firm is seeking a Corporate Transactions Associate with 3–7 years’ experience to join its growing Healthcare Corporate team in Atlanta or Chicago.

This is an excellent opportunity for an M&A attorney looking to develop a sector focus within healthcare. Prior healthcare experience is not required; the firm welcomes candidates with strong general M&A or corporate transactions experience who are interested in advising healthcare clients on sophisticated transactions.

The Role

You will advise clients on a broad range of corporate transactions, with a particular focus on healthcare-related matters. The work will include:

• Mergers and acquisitions
• Private company transactions
• Corporate restructurings
• Joint ventures and strategic partnerships
• Commercial and corporate agreements
• Transactional support for healthcare providers, investors and operating companies
• Due diligence, drafting and deal execution

Although the majority of work will involve healthcare clients, this is fundamentally a corporate transactions role, making it well suited to attorneys with strong M&A experience who are looking to broaden their sector exposure.

Candidate Profile

The successful candidate will have:

• 3–7 years’ experience in M&A, corporate transactions or general corporate work
• Experience gained at a respected law firm
• Strong drafting, due diligence and transaction management skills
• The ability to manage key aspects of deals with increasing independence
• Excellent communication and client service skills
• A genuine interest in working with healthcare clients
• Admission to practice in Georgia or Illinois, or eligibility to waive in

Healthcare deal experience is welcomed but not required.
