Save Job

A rapidly scaling private energy developer is hiring a Commercial Counsel to help lead complex contracting across major US infrastructure projects. The work spans project development, major equipment supply, construction delivery, long‑term offtake/commercial arrangements and vendor partnerships, supporting the build and operation of first‑of‑kind power assets.

You'll operate in a small team with high ownership, taking the lead on negotiations and helping structure commercial frameworks that move projects from concept to delivery to generation. This is not a slow advisory seat; it is hands‑on, cross‑functional and central to revenue, delivery and deployment.

What you will lead on

Negotiation and drafting of large commercial agreements (build, supply, operations, offtake)

Supporting project, finance, procurement and development teams end to end

Creating contract structures that balance risk with delivery velocity

Managing external counsel for specialist regulatory/siting matters

Building frameworks that enable scale, repeatability and faster deployment

Helping refine contract processes & deal workflows across the organization

What we’re looking for

6+ years post‑qualification experience

Strong grounding in complex commercial contracting, ideally in infrastructure/energy/technology

Able to negotiate material project and supply‑side agreements confidently

Comfortable advising non‑lawyers and operating with pace

Generalist mindset with commercial instincts, not a narrow technical specialist

Must be able to work on site 5 days per week (location options available)

Experience with large construction, power generation assets or cross‑border deals is advantageous.

Why this is compelling You’ll be part of a team deploying tangible energy systems, not just advising from the sidelines. Deals get built fast.

If you are open to a confidential conversation, message me directly.

Interview windows are being booked up quickly.
