Palo Alto Corporate Associate

Work at the center of Silicon Valley's startup ecosystem, representing the founders, emerging growth companies, and venture investors building the next generation of AI and other category-defining businesses.

Join client's emerging companies group, home to our deepest bench in early- and growth-stage company representation. We are looking for a corporate associate with 3-6 years of relevant experience to take a leading role on venture financings, formations, M&A, and the full range of strategic transactions that define a company's first decade.

You will run deals, manage client relationships, mentor junior associates, and develop the judgment that comes from advising founders and boards through inflection points, from seed stage through pre-IPO and beyond. Our clients range from stealth-mode startups to the most prominent late-stage private companies in the Valley.

Prior emerging companies experience is not required; we welcome candidates with M&A or other transactional backgrounds. This is a collaborative team that invests heavily in associate development, both on the substantive work and on the client relationships that will define your career.

Superior academic credentials and excellent verbal, written, and interpersonal skills required.
