Lawyer VC/M&A/Corporate
F·D·MBerlin
Munich
From day one, we offer you a concrete partner-track perspective to actively shape the future of PXR.
We are currently looking for an experienced (Senior) Associate (m/f/d) to join our core practice areas Venture Capital (VC), M&A (primarily sell-side) and General Corporate (board advisory, restructurings) in our Berlin and Munich offices.
Candidates should bring solid prior experience (ideally 3–5+ years) in at least one of the practice areas above. You should also have first experience in leading teams and well-established know-how in transactional work. A portable book of business is neither required nor an exclusion criterion — we see PXR as a platform where you can build and grow your own business case, supported by a strong base of client work from your very first day.
If you want to work in a modern, dynamic and ambitious environment that gives you the opportunity to learn, to grow into an independent partner personality, and to thrive in a strong team and a values-driven culture, this role may be the right fit for you.
Your Role
As part of our team, you will advise on and develop your practice in:
- VC financings (from Seed to Pre-IPO)
- M&A transactions in the tech sector (primarily sell-side, often with multi-seller set-ups)
- Venture debt transactions
- Employee participation programs and equity packages for senior management
- Advising management and supervisory boards of technology companies
- General corporate matters (e.g., SE conversions)
Since we are involved in several post-M&A arbitration proceedings, you will also have the opportunity to broaden your scope and work on high-profile disputes.
What we are looking for
We seek experienced lawyers with excellent academic credentials who combine strong technical skills with outstanding communication and interpersonal abilities. We look for ambitious people with a can-do mindset, eager to take responsibility and drive their careers forward. You should be open to learning and growth, enjoy working in a team, and bring a genuine interest in the venture capital and technology ecosystem. You should share our firm’s values and have the motivation to help build the “next generation law firm” — with a clear path towards partnership.
What we offer
- A base salary of EUR 150,000/year starting from your third year of practice
- A genuine partner-track opportunity with entrepreneurial growth potential
- Flexible working hours and the option to work remotely
- 30 vacation days per year
- Direct client contact from day one, with support to build your own network and practice
- Investment in your professional and personal development, enabling you to grow into a well-connected partner-level advisor
- A highly qualified and experienced team of lawyers and tax advisors who share the same values and appreciate a modern, open working culture
- A family-friendly working environment — we work remotely, cooperate with pme Familienservice and encourage job sharing whenever possible
- Commitment to diversity and inclusion: we value different personalities, skills and backgrounds
