About the Role

The Company is seeking a Vice President for its U.S. Commercial investment team. The successful candidate will be responsible for identifying and analyzing litigation-related opportunities for financing, as well as overseeing matters in which the company has invested. This role requires the ability to quickly evaluate the merits of claims, assess and price risks associated with litigation, evaluate litigation budgets, and negotiate financing deals. The Vice President will also be involved in developing new business and will be the primary point of contact for law firms, in-house counsel, and corporate representatives. The position is pivotal in the company's business model, and the role is highly dynamic, involving both the front-line activities of investment and the post-investment monitoring of cases.

Candidates for the Vice President position should ideally have a background that includes 6+ years of broad commercial litigation experience from a top-tier U.S. law firm, with exposure to antitrust litigation and federal clerkship experience. A commercial mindset, strong communication skills, and the ability to work in a fast-paced, market-disruptive environment are essential. The role demands a team player who is entrepreneurial, self-directed, and capable of building strong client relationships. While not all qualifications are mandatory, a legal background with a focus on expert data analyses, valuation, or damages reports, and a license to practice law in the U.S., are preferred. The company values rigorous thinking, clear communication, and efficient execution, and is committed to maintaining an inclusive workplace culture.
