Kirkland Capital Group

100% Remote - must be in a North American aligned time zone.The CompanyKirkland Capital Group is an investment fund manager focused on commercial real estate. We provide bridge financing for the backbone of America, commercial property that is home to small and medium business. This includes multifamily financing that contributes to the rehabilitation of middle-income affordable housing. All of which makes a positive social and environmental impact. For investors, the Kirkland Income Fund provides high-yield fixed-income like returns with a focus on principal preservation.We are proud to be a fully remote company, with team members working from their preferred locations, be it their homes or elsewhere. Our diverse team currently extends across the United States, the Philippines, and India. What matters to us is the quality of your work, not just the time you spend on it.Every three months, all team members take part in an online company review session. This review focuses on the company&rsquo;s goals and discusses each person&rsquo;s goals and successes in each work area. It also gives us a chance to assess our triumphs and find places where we can improve. Additionally, we brainstorm together on ways we can excel further.The RoleWe are hiring an Attorney (JD) to help us build the legal and operational backbone of a growing private real estate investment platform spanning both debt and equity.This role is intentionally hands‑on at the start. You will personally own loan servicing and default management for an active commercial loan portfolio, including real foreclosure work. That execution is not busywork&mdash;it is how you earn deep context, credibility, and authority over the systems we are building.At the same time, from day one, you will contribute to the Asset Management side of the business. As we expand into owning and operating real estate, this role plays a critical part in shaping how legal, risk, and operational decisions are made across both debt and equity investments.Our long‑term roadmap is deliberate:Phase 1 &ndash; Execution &amp; Ground Truth You personally run servicing and default management end‑to‑end. You help document, refine, and pressure‑test our SOPs and risk controls while contributing legal and risk analysis to asset management decisions.Phase 2 &ndash; System Building &amp; Leverage As processes mature, portions of servicing work are automated or delegated to a servicing assistant. Your role shifts toward designing systems, supervising execution, and owning higher‑level legal and risk decisions across the portfolio.Phase 3 &ndash; Strategic Operator &amp; Advisor You become a strategic partner to leadership, advising across both the debt and equity sides of the business&mdash;helping guide structure, risk posture, and decision‑making as the platform scales.This is not a traditional legal role. We are not looking for someone who wants to research in isolation or draft endlessly without ownership. We are looking for an execution‑oriented attorney who believes that legal work should be embedded directly in operations and asset performance, not siloed or reactive.If you want a role where you start close to the work, build real leverage over time, and grow into a strategic seat across a multi‑asset real estate platform&mdash;this role was designed with that trajectory in mind.Watch a video about the role by the hiring manager at https://share.descript.com/view/ZcR3h8H3QMFWhat will you do?You will operate as an execution-driven owner of loan servicing, default management, and legal risk&mdash;while contributing from the beginning to the Asset Management side of the business.Loan Servicing, Workouts &amp;
