You will be joining our Funds team in the UK under Carta Law. Carta Law is the largest AI-native law firm for private capital, born from the combination of Avantia Law and Carta. Our lawyers and paralegals work alongside embedded AI agents to deliver investor onboarding, transaction KYC, and high-volume legal work with a speed and consistency that traditional law firms simply can't match.

As a Junior Paralegal, you will rotate across or specialise within one of three practice areas depending on your strengths and interests.

The Problems You’ll Solve

As a Funds Paralegal, you’ll work to:

• Prepare initial drafts of LP transfer documents (transfer agreements, consents, subscription agreements)
• Liaise with transfer parties on process and timings, and assist with execution workflows
• Work closely with lawyers and senior paralegals, contributing to high-quality client delivery across fast-moving, high-volume matters
• Build commercial and legal expertise over time, with opportunities to take ownership of client accounts and progress towards qualification via the SQE route

About You

We are looking for someone who is:

• Eager to learn and grow. You are motivated, curious, and excited to develop expertise in legal practice – whether that is compliance, contracts, or funds.
• Organised and efficient. You prioritise well, manage competing deadlines, and keep matters moving without losing attention to detail.
• A strong communicator. You write and speak clearly and professionally, understanding that our clients expect crisp, concise advice.
• A self-starter. You take initiative, work independently when needed, and proactively flag issues before they become problems.
• A team player. You collaborate effectively with lawyers, senior paralegals, and client-facing teams across a fast-paced environment.
• Legally educated (preferred). An undergraduate Law degree or equivalent is preferred; a GDL is welcome. Prior exposure to LP Transfer processes is a plus but not required.

We are an equal opportunity employer and are committed to providing a positive interview experience for every candidate. If accommodations due to a disability or medical condition are needed, please connect with the talent partner via email.

We work on a hybrid schedule where we come into office 3x/week and work remotely the remaining 2 days. In office schedules are set by location and team. Please confirm you can work in person at the location(s) of the job listed above per this schedule.
