A partner-level appointment in this practice turns on the portability of the practice, far more than on any headline figure.

The role will originate and lead complex buyouts, growth capital and VC-backed transactions, advise strategic acquirers and sponsors, and develop nationwide client relationships.

Portable book of business of $2M+ (USD)
Proven track record in private equity, M&A and/or venture capital transactions
Significant origination and client-development experience
Experience leading deal teams and mentoring senior associates
Active bar admission and strong standing in the Chicago market
