Commercial Transactions Attorney (Energy)

The position

Our client, a technology company focused on providing digital solutions for the energy industry, is seeking a commercial transactions attorney to support with coverage for an upcoming family leave. This attorney will be responsible for negotiating large licensing services implementation contracts with utilities across North America. These agreements can range from small amendments to more complex ones, so strong negotiation skills will be key. Experience with standard licensing principles and IP negotiations will be important. 

This role will involve working with the commercial operations team, so it’s important that the attorney can distill complex legal concepts into simple, understandable language for non-attorneys. Ideally, this person will have experience at an energy or utility company (or something similar).

ASAP start, 20 hours/week with a duration of 4 months with the potential to extend. This role is fully remote and the candidate should be available to support East Coast hours. 

The hourly rate for this assignment is expected to be between $107 and $111. This range is an estimate; an employee’s compensation will be based on the employee’s qualifications, skillset, and relevant experience, specific client needs, project requirements, and other considerations permitted by law.
