About the Role
The Company is in search of a Vice President, Corporate Counsel with a focus on energy project development. The successful candidate will be responsible for providing legal support and guidance throughout the entire lifecycle of complex energy projects, from development to operation and compliance. This includes advising on site selection, project structuring, development agreements, permitting, utility interconnection, and a range of commercial and financial matters. The role demands a self-starter with a strong background in energy, infrastructure, and project development, who can effectively translate legal, regulatory, and commercial risks into practical recommendations. Key responsibilities also involve leading legal support for energy generation, storage, and power infrastructure projects, as well as drafting and negotiating a variety of legal agreements. Applicants must have a JD from an ABA-accredited law school, be admitted to and in good standing with a state bar, and have at least 10 years of relevant legal experience. The ideal candidate will have a combination of law-firm and in-house experience, with a proven track record in energy project development. Expertise in EPC and construction contracting, project and structured finance, and a deep understanding of permitting and regulatory matters in the energy sector are essential. The role requires excellent judgment, legal drafting, negotiation, and project management skills, as well as the ability to build trust with senior leaders and cross-functional stakeholders. The candidate should be collaborative, self-directed, and comfortable operating in a high-growth, entrepreneurial environment.
