Recognized by Fortune, Forbes, Fast Company, Inc. and Great Places to Work. For more information about our offices and culture, check out our Carta careers page . The Team You'll Work With You'll be joining our Compliance – Transactional team. Working with the Head of Investment Compliance and an international team of ex-Big Law lawyers, paralegals, and analysts, you'll serve as the day-to-day legal contact for institutional investors and asset manager clients across private equity, infrastructure, credit, and real estate strategies. The Problems You'll Solve At Carta, our employees set out on a mission to unlock the power of equity ownership for more people in more places. We believe that the problems we solve today unlock the opportunities of tomorrow. As a Senior Transactional Lawyer, you'll work to: • Be the client's trusted deal-side compliance partner. Act as the primary day-to-day legal contact for institutional investors and asset managers — advising on compliance risk factors across live transactions with clarity and commercial pragmatism. • Unpack transaction structures that others can't. Work closely with private equity deal teams to understand complex deal anatomy, identify counterparties, and conduct multi-dimensional risk analysis — covering AML, bribery and corruption, financial crime, and reputational risk. • Investigate ownership and control to find what matters. Review fund structures, SPVs, partnerships, and trusts to map corporate ownership and fund flows — building a defensible compliance picture under deal timeline pressure. • Drive the materials process. Liaise with deal teams, legal, compliance, and relevant counterparties to gather what's needed to complete reviews on time, without losing rigour. • Ensure deals close compliantly. Collaborate with clients' legal and compliance teams to confirm that transactions meet AML/CTF regulations, internal policies, and jurisdictional requirements. About You • A qualified lawyer with transactional compliance experience. You're licensed to practice in the UK or Europe (other comparable jurisdictions considered), with 4-6+ years PQE recommended in regulatory or investment compliance — and experience representing asset managers, institutional investors, or other financial services clients. • Commercially sharp and solutions-first. You approach compliance as an enabler of deal velocity, not a barrier to it — you find the path to yes while keeping clients protected. • Deeply familiar with complex asset management structures. You've reviewed fund structures, SPVs, offshore vehicles, and multi-jurisdictional counterparties in a live deal context. • Client-ready under pressure. You're comfortable as the named contact for demanding institutional clients in a fast-paced financial services environment — credible, responsive, and composed when deals get complicated. • Right to work in the UK without visa sponsorship is required for this role. At Carta, you're not just an employee. You're a builder who is creating infrastructure that accelerates innovation and empowers more ownership. Cartans are helpful, relentless, unconventional and kind; representing Carta's Identity Traits. They work collaborativel
