Real Estate Counsel – Private Equity Fund (Austin, TX)Confidential Search | Retained by Kinney Recruiting

We’re partnering with a well-capitalized private equity fund—now deploying its second fund with close to $1B in available capital—to hire a Real Estate Counsel who will lead acquisitions and help scale a rapidly growing platform in an emerging industrial asset class.This is a unique opportunity to help shape the legal backbone of a business that’s transforming underutilized land in key metro markets into high-demand logistics infrastructure—the backbone of modern freight and mobility networks. Think : no warehouses, just raw land converted into purpose-built, revenue-generating outdoor hubs.The Role :

  • Lead legal execution of real estate acquisitions, from PSA through close.
  • Coordinate diligence and external counsel, particularly around title issues and entitlements.
  • Support strategic / compliance matters related to the company’s REIT conversion (tax / ops handled externally).
  • Work directly with entrepreneurial principals on a lean, high-velocity deal team.

Who You Are :

  • A mid-to-senior BigLaw real estate associate (class of 2017–2020 preferred).
  • Experienced in acquisitions and land / development work—industrial or otherwise.
  • Comfortable with ownership, lean teams, and transactional velocity.
  • Excited to step out of law firm life and help build a platform with long-term upside.

    • What’s in It for You :

  • Cash comp that beats BigLaw salaries and bonuses.
  • Carried interest for the right hire—true upside, not just cash.
  • A front-row seat at a company with institutional backing, ambitious leadership, and momentum.
  • The chance to build something meaningful in Austin, TX—with relocation assistance if needed.
