    General Counsel - Houston, TX, United States - Hire Counsel

    Default job background
    Description

    General Counsel to manage a $100m Family Trust suite of businesses is needed – is that you? I hope so

    My client is looking for a General Counsel to set-up and establish the legal functions of a $100m privately held investment fund, someone who can bring a top-down approach to creating a department from scratch while monitoring/babysitting/protecting the fund's assets.

    Here's a unique twist: they'd love to find an attorney who has experience in taking biomass and converting it to storable energy; someone who can navigate the regulatory trenches of that field would be ideal (if you're out there and reading).

    One of their subsidiary companies is also a manufacturing company that works with government institutions like schools, so experience with supply chains would be helpful.

    They also work with a REIT, to give you – Mr. or Ms. Right – an idea of what could make you stand out.

    They'd strongly prefer someone who lives in Houston but are open to a remote/hybrid schedule for truly outstanding candidates.

    If this sounds like you, please, let me know

    (Me meaning I, Mike Coughlin, the man writing and recruiting on this position; I'm not an AI sprung forth from the imagination of Elon Musk.)

    Qualifications and Further Details:

    · 10+ years practice with an established law firm or relevant in-house counsel experience with a premium placed on those who have worked with INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FUNDS in the past;

    · JD or LLM;

    · Location: Houston, TX.

    · Compensation: $250,000+/year BASE with potential seven figure equity plan participation as part of a year-to-year contract as renewed by the board

    NOTE ON PAY: Please, do not let this number dissuade you from applying. While they expect to land in the $250k range for the BASE salary, there will be legitimate and serious incentives negotiated.

    Responsibilities:

    · Report directly to the CEO and function as part of the C Suite;

    · Oversee the negotiation and execution of business contracts that drive the value and risk management pillars of the trust;

    · Set strategy for, and manage execution of, internal and external compliance and risk management;

    · Provide legal oversight to other departments (e.g., HR, operations, marketing, sales, etc.);

    · Work with go to market team to leverage risk management into a key asset to drive revenue growth;

    · Participate in strategic planning for growth and operational excellence;

    · Deploy a contract administration process across the organization; and

    · Develop a matrixed team of professionals to assist in growth expansion.

    You can apply on our website, via LinkedIn, or you can email me your resume directly at (I can't promise you'll get the job, but I can promise I'll see your resume.)
