JUNIOR PE / M&A OPENINGS AT TOP 10 US FIRM IN HONG KONG - PRACTICE SWITCH CANDIDATES OK

One of Kinney’s key law firm clients in Hong Kong has junior US associate M&A openings.  Mandarin is required. 1st, 2nd or 3rd years will fill the roles. Mandarin is required.

This firm’s M&A hiring partners will consider practice switch candidates for the first time in some years.  So this is a great opportunity for cap markets, finance and other practice area associates at top tier US firms in Hong Kong / China or US markets to switch to a top tier M&A practice at a peer or higher ranked firm. The role will have a Private Equity / M&A focus.

This firm pays top market expat / cola / housing allowances. We at Kinney are quite close with all of their M&A partners in Hong Kong / China and we have placed two of those partners at the firm in years past. We have also placed a number of associates in this practice team and at this firm in other practice areas in Hong Kong / China.  In our opinion, and we can easily argue that any informed person in the Hong Kong market would agree, this M&A group would be a fantastic landing spot for great training, building a great deal sheet, having great mentoring, and for a congenial team first environment.  There is long-term career advancement potential here and said mid-level and senior associates from this firm in Hong Kong are always marketable for top in-house and other roles in the market, including but not limited to at Private Equity funds and equity partner track roles in private practice.

This firm is very selective, as you would expect for a top 10 firm.
