About the Role
The Company is seeking a Deputy General Counsel to take on a pivotal role in leading and managing the legal and risk management function. This senior position requires a strategic and experienced legal professional with a Juris Doctor (JD) degree and a minimum of 10 years' progressive legal experience, particularly in the energy, renewables, infrastructure, or related sectors. The successful candidate will be responsible for a wide range of legal activities, including commercial transactions, project development, M&A, and project finance. Key responsibilities for the Deputy General Counsel include serving as the primary legal advisor on complex and business-critical issues, providing strategic legal guidance, and driving continuous improvement of legal operations. The role also involves leading, mentoring, and developing a team of legal professionals, as well as managing external counsel relationships. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of leadership, be a recognized subject matter expert in legal matters, and possess the executive presence and credibility to represent the legal function effectively. Applicants for the Deputy General Counsel position at the company should be adept at modeling the company's values and have a strong ability to manage legal projects independently. The role demands a clear communicator with strong cross-functional collaboration skills, who is proactive in improving legal processes and documentation. The Deputy General Counsel will work closely with the Chief Legal Officer on significant risks, strategic decisions, and enterprise legal matters, and must be capable of providing sound business judgment and building strong relationships across various functions. The position is well-suited for a candidate with a strong background in commercial agreements, M&A, and legal diligence, and who can demonstrate the ability to translate legal requirements into business options. The Deputy General Counsel will also be involved in the development and implementation of legal policies, processes, and compliance initiatives, and will be expected to contribute to the long-term scalability, control, and efficiency of the legal function.
