• Act as a primary legal adviser to leadership and business teams across the organization.
• Develop a strong understanding of the company’s commercial priorities, projects, contractual obligations, and operating risks.
• Oversee legal work associated with commercial transactions, project development, financing, construction, operations, corporate governance, and regulatory matters.
• Review, draft, and negotiate commercial agreements and other transaction documents.
• Advise business teams on commercial structures, contractual terms, risk allocation, and negotiation strategy.
• Support the development and execution of new projects and strategic business opportunities.
• Assist with financing transactions, including due diligence, structuring, documentation, negotiation, and coordination with capital providers and advisers.
• Provide legal support for acquisitions, investments, partnerships, joint ventures, and other strategic transactions.

Qualifications

• Juris Doctor from an accredited law school.
• Active membership in good standing with the bar of at least one U.S. jurisdiction.
• A minimum of six years of relevant legal experience gained in private practice, an in-house environment, or a combination of both.
• Transactional experience within infrastructure, energy, project development, construction, finance, M&A, real assets, or another capital-intensive sector.
• Strong drafting, negotiation, legal analysis, and issue-identification capabilities.
• Commercial judgment and the ability to differentiate significant business exposure from manageable legal risk.
• Experience working with senior executives, investment professionals, project teams, technical stakeholders, or operating leaders.
• Familiarity with large-scale energy, utility, industrial, technology, or mission-critical infrastructure would be advantageous.
