A growing legal team is seeking a mid-level Corporate Paralegal to support day-to-day corporate governance, contract operations, and regulatory compliance work across a multi-entity organization. This is a hands‑on role for someone who thrives on structure, precision, and juggling multiple moving pieces in a fast-paced legal department.

• Handle state registration filings, annual report submissions, and certificates of good standing


• Draft standard governance paperwork such as resolutions, consents, and officer/incumbency certificates


• Help organize board and committee meetings — pulling together agendas, materials, logistics, and meeting minutes

Contracts

• Review and prepare routine commercial documents, including NDAs, master service agreements, statements of work, vendor contracts, and amendments


• Own pieces of the contract lifecycle — intake, tracking, version control, and finalizing execution


• Partner with business teams to keep contractual obligations and internal approvals on track


• Maintain and refine the organization's contract templates and standard clause library

Compliance

• Support the broader compliance program — helping update policies, coordinate training, and assist with audits


• Assist with regulatory and state-level filings


• Research applicable statutory and regulatory requirements as needed

Transactions

• Support attorneys on due diligence efforts, data room organization, and assembly of closing binders for deals, financings, or commercial transactions


• Prepare signature packets and help coordinate deal execution and closing logistics


• Act as a connector between the legal team and other departments — Finance, HR, Operations, and Procurement


• Contribute to legal operations improvements, including rollout of contract management or entity management technology

What We're Looking For

Required:

• 3+ years of experience as a corporate paralegal, either at a law firm or in-house


• Solid grasp of corporate governance, entity management, and commercial contract fundamentals


• Comfortable with Microsoft Office and legal tech tools (DocuSign, contract lifecycle management systems, entity management platforms)


• Highly organized with sharp attention to detail and strong multitasking ability


• Clear, professional written and verbal communicator

Nice to Have:

• Background in energy, infrastructure, construction, or a related sector


• Experience working across multiple corporate entities/subsidiaries


• Paralegal certificate or bachelor's degree


• Active notary commission, or open to obtaining one
