Profile

Apply
Seeking a candidate to join our antitrust group as a member of the Mergers & Acquisitions Clearance Team. The Mergers & Acquisitions Clearance Team handles compliance with the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act (the “HSR Act”) and coordinates with our London-based team on international merger control compliance. The Team supports busy and growing antitrust, corporate and private equity practices. The ideal candidate will be expected to assess HSR reportability, prepare HSR forms, and manage filing preparation, including coordination with the client, the corporate team and opposing counsel. Current Team members and other antitrust partners will provide additional training and support on these job requirements. The candidate may be asked to work on substantive antitrust analysis of competitor transactions, Second Request responses and general antitrust counseling matters.

Candidates should have knowledge of, and experience in, HSR notification compliance and representing clients before the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Justice Antitrust Division in merger clearance matters. Qualified candidates must have excellent drafting and communication skills, exceptional attention to detail and the ability to work effectively within deadlines. A background in corporate M&A or experience working for private equity fund clients is a plus.

This position is focused on regulatory antitrust matters, rather than antitrust litigation.
