    Responsibilities

    • Post-award, Preconstruction: Draft, review, and negotiate prime contracts (Evans generally as the design-builder, construction manager, or general contractor) and associated documents.
    • Construction: Work collaboratively with Project Team leadership to properly identify and analyze issues arising during construction to develop approaches for achieving results in the best interest of the Project and the Company. This often includes providing support with preparation of contract-administration documents, both up and downstream, of a variety of types: notices (delay, claims, default, termination), change orders, change directives, certificates of substantial completions of unusual complexity, etc.


    In this phase of a Project, this role will also review and negotiate subcontracts, design agreements, purchase orders, and other contracts.


    • Post-Construction: Counsel Project Teams on post-completion issues such as warranty work, insurance claims, lien claims from lower tier subcontractors or suppliers, and similar matters.
    • Work with, and oversee, outside counsel handling Evans' legal proceedings and/or claims including the development of strategy, recommendations to Senior Management, and budget.
    • Assist with state and federal regulatory compliance.
    • Aid in the design, development, and implementation of processes and procedures for running the Legal Department to drive results and advance business objectives.

    • In-House Counsel experience strongly preferred.
    • Must be proactive, resourceful, and capable of working and managing multiple work assignments simultaneously.
    • Able to work effectively as part of a team and develop relationships at all levels of the organization. This is critical for the success of this position at Evans.
    • Confident in complex and difficult situations/negotiations.
