Job Description
Corporate Counsel - Power & Construction Industry
Are you a seasoned attorney with deep transactional experience in the power and construction sectors? This is a rare opportunity to step into a Corporate Counsel role supporting two dynamic entities within a leading national construction organization. You'll be part of a high-impact legal team that directly supports operations, project execution, and strategic risk management across complex infrastructure projects.
Why This Role Stands Out:
- Strategic Influence: Work closely with executive leadership and cross-functional teams to shape contract strategy and mitigate risk across multimillion-dollar construction and maintenance projects.
- Diverse Legal Exposure: From EPC agreements and master service contracts to claims management and licensing compliance, this role offers a broad legal portfolio.
- Industry Impact: Support projects that power communities and drive renewable energy initiatives-your work will have tangible, long-term impact.
- Collaborative Culture: Join a legal team that values practical solutions, proactive thinking, and strong internal partnerships.
Key Responsibilities:
- Draft, review, and negotiate complex commercial agreements including EPC contracts, master service agreements, purchase and sale agreements, parent guarantees, and surety instruments.
- Advise leadership on contract risks and mitigation strategies during bid reviews and project execution.
- Support post-award legal matters including claims development (delay, disruption, force majeure, etc.) and contract interpretation.
- Assist with vendor negotiations and ensure compliance with licensing and regulatory requirements.
- Deliver legal training and guidance to internal teams across operations, finance, supply chain, and insurance.
Ideal Candidate Profile:
- J.D. from an ABA-accredited law school with at least 4+ years of relevant experience.
- Strong background in transactional law within the power generation and construction industries.
- Proven success negotiating complex agreements and managing legal risk in engineering or construction environments.
- Experience with claims development and change management is highly preferred.
- In-house counsel experience within a construction or engineering firm is a plus.
- Working knowledge of insurance and intellectual property law is beneficial.
Skills That Set You Apart:
- Exceptional negotiation and persuasion skills.
- Ability to synthesize legal and business issues into actionable guidance.
- Strong drafting skills and attention to detail.
- Comfortable managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
This is more than a legal job-it's a chance to be a strategic partner in a company building the future of energy infrastructure. If you're ready to bring your legal expertise to a role where your impact will be felt across major projects and teams, we want to hear from you.
