Legal Jobs 2026 (Now Hiring) – Smart Auto Apply

G MASS are seeking a fund operations specialist to support a buy-side client engagement focused on the structured dissolution and lifecycle management of complex legal entities including SPVs, trusts and funds.

The primary focus of this role is fund operations and entity lifecycle delivery. The successful candidate will work directly alongside the client's paralegal team to manage entity wind-down processes from initial scoping through to final closure.

A strong fund operations background is essential; familiarity with legal entity processes and documentation is beneficial and will be an advantage, but candidates with deep fund experience and limited paralegal exposure are encouraged to apply.

Responsibilities:

• Lead the end-to-end coordination of legal entity dissolution processes, including SPVs, trusts and funds, working directly alongside the client's paralegal team to ensure all pre-closure checks are completed accurately and on time.
• Apply fund operations knowledge to review and interpret constitutional, financial and fund-related documentation, supporting closure actions across jurisdictions.
• Coordinate across internal teams and external stakeholders to confirm there are no open litigation matters, outstanding obligations or operational blockers preventing entity closure.
• Manage multiple client deliverables simultaneously, maintaining project trackers, leading client status meetings and proactively escalating challenges or risks to timeline.
• Build and maintain strong working relationships with cross-functional teams, third-party vendors and client stakeholders, fostering confidence through consistent communication and delivery.
• Design and implement enhanced workflows where processes require amendment, drawing on fund operations experience and adapting to evolving client requirements throughout the project lifecycle

Requirements

• Demonstrable exposure to complex fund structures — SPVs, closed-end funds or similar — is essential.
• A strong understanding of fund lifecycle management, including entity set-up, maintenance and closure processes.
• Minimum 2+ years in a fund operations, fund administration or compliance-adjacent role; experience with dissolution or wind-down processes is a strong advantage.
• Familiarity with legal entity documentation and paralegal processes is beneficial; candidates who have worked closely with legal teams on entity lifecycle matters will be well-suited to this role.
• Strong attention to detail, analytical ability and organisational skills.
• Clear communicator, comfortable presenting to clients and senior stakeholders.
• Able to manage competing priorities under pressure, independently and collaboratively.
• Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite; advanced Excel preferred.

Benefits

12-month initial contract.
