About Stableton
Stableton is a globally leading, tech- and data-driven institutional investor in private blue-chip tech companies. We empower institutional investors, private banks, and wealth managers to benefit from the value creation of the world's most valuable technology companies through our unique unicorn index investment funds and institutional thematic investment mandates.
With our disruptive mindset, fast-paced culture, and track record of innovation, we are reshaping private market investing. With seven years of 100%+ annual growth, we are scaling globally, and we're just getting started.
About the Role
We are seeking an experienced, hands-on Legal Counsel to support our investment and operations teams across a growing multi-jurisdictional platform spanning the US, Switzerland, and Luxembourg. You will report directly to our CFO and work closely with the investment team on a steady flow of US private equity (growth equity and pre-IPO primary and secondary) transactions and SPV investments, gaining exposure to the world’s private tech companies.
The largest part of this role is deal work: reviewing and negotiating transaction documents, spotting issues before they become problems, and giving the investment team clear, practical guidance they can act on in the moment. We need someone who gets into the details of a deal, moves at the pace our transactions require, and is comfortable being the expert the team relies on.
Alongside that, you will support our group corporate structure across the US, Switzerland, Luxembourg, and Germany, such as shareholder matters, financing rounds, stock option plans, and the general housekeeping that keeps a fast-growing group in good order, as well as liaise with local counsel and coordinate on any investor-related matters. This is an individual-contributor legal role, not a leadership-team seat, but it carries real ownership and direct access to the founders.
We're constantly upgrading how we work, and legal is no exception. AI-assisted tools are already part of how we review documents and run diligence, and we're looking for someone who's curious about pushing that further, not just comfortable with it.
Your Responsibilities
- Review and negotiate transaction documents for US growth equity and pre-IPO deals and private fund investments, including subscription agreements, side letters, LPAs, term sheets, and co-investment documentation
- Give the investment team direct, actionable legal guidance during deal execution and diligence, flagging real risks early and proposing workable solutions
- Own corporate governance and entity management across the firm's international group structure, including shareholder matters, financing rounds, and the firm's stock option plans
- Collaborate with finance and operations on cross-functional legal matters and investor-related matters as they arise
- Coordinate with and manage external counsel more broadly where specialist advice is required
- Build and maintain playbooks, templates, and review workflows that make deal turnaround faster and sharper over time
- Track legal and regulatory developments and flag implications for the firm's activity
Requirements
- Significant, hands-on transactional experience in US growth equity and pre-IPO deals as well as private fund investments
- Qualified lawyer with substantial post-qualification experience; US bar admission preferred (state flexible)
- Strong working knowledge of US securities law and private markets regulation; familiarity with SEC-registered investment adviser obligations is a plus
- Comfortable working directly on live deals at pace — reviewing documents quickly, negotiating in real time, and giving guidance the business can act on immediately
- Proven ability to work independently, exercise judgment, and advise senior stakeholders directly without needing a large legal team around you
- Commercially pragmatic — able to distill complex legal risk into actionable guidance without unnecessary friction
- Digitally savvy, with a genuine interest in AI and modern tooling as a way to work faster and better — not just tolerant of new workflows, but keen to help build them
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English
- Right to work in the chosen base location (US, Switzerland, Germany or Luxembourg, UK) at time of application; the firm is unable to provide visa sponsorship
Nice to Have
- Familiarity with investment products and financial regulations in the EU / Switzerland
- Experience advising on or working within multi-jurisdictional corporate structures (including cross-border employment matters, Employer of Record arrangements and data protection regulations)
- German language skills are beneficial
