About the Role

The Company is seeking an Assistant General Counsel with a focus on government contracts to join their global team. The successful candidate will be a key player in managing the organization's contractual legal affairs, providing strategic legal advice, and supporting the business in all aspects of government contracting, both domestically and internationally. This role requires a seasoned legal professional with a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree, a minimum of 15 years' of legal experience, and a strong background in government contracts, including a deep understanding of the FAR and DFARS. The Assistant General Counsel will be responsible for a wide range of legal matters, from bid and proposal advice to contract compliance, and will be expected to work cross-functionally to identify and mitigate legal risks. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in legal and compliance issues, the ability to influence and collaborate with stakeholders, and a commitment to upholding the highest ethical standards. Applicants for the Assistant General Counsel position at the company should possess superior analytical, problem-solving, and business acumen skills. The role demands an individual who can approach legal issues from a business perspective, offering timely and effective advice, and who is adept at managing multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment. The candidate must be a strong communicator, both in articulating legal advice and in fostering collaboration with internal and external partners. A global vision, cultural sensitivity, and the ability to work with diverse teams are also essential. The company is dedicated to equal employment opportunity and values a diverse workforce that can contribute to innovation and success in the global marketplace.
