For Lawyers
Build the career before the move.
Search and advisory for associates and counsel across funds, private equity, secondaries, and the wider private capital market.
GPS helps you assess the work, partner support, development, and compensation a role offers. That includes a path to partnership, a long-term counsel role, or a decision to stay.
A conversation can help clarify your options before you decide whether to move.
Development
Work that builds your experience
GPS helps associates and counsel assess whether a role offers the responsibility, mentorship, and client experience to support their next career step.
Our experience spans fund formation, private equity, secondaries, GP stakes, liquidity solutions, fund finance, and NAV financing.
Sometimes a change of firm makes sense. Sometimes the next step is to improve the work, relationships, or opportunities available where you are.
PLATFORM
The firm has to match the practice
A stronger name does not always mean a stronger platform. GPS looks at sponsor relationships, partner support, matter flow, staffing, and training in the group you would join.
The right fit depends on your practice and seniority, including the responsibility, client contact, and progression the role offers.

Know the number. Know the reason.
Compensation matters. So does the reason the number exists: retention pressure, replacement risk, practice demand, or a firm paying ahead of a build.
GPS helps you weigh compensation alongside the work, development, and longer-term prospects of the role, including what you would be leaving behind.
