  • Coordinate and manage external counsel on specialized or non-routine matters, including regulatory, compliance and/or dispute-related issues, while retaining ownership of legal strategy and outcomes
  • Support internal stakeholders by developing and maintaining standard form agreements, playbooks, and internal guidance tailored to MEMS' trading activities

REQUIRED EDUCATION, EXPERIENCE & SKILLS:
  • Juris Doctor (JD) degree from an accredited U.S. law school
  • Active license (and in good standing) with the Texas State Bar
  • Minimum of 7-10 years of relevant legal experience, with a strong preference for in-house or law firm experience supporting energy, commodities, or complex commercial transactions
  • Experience as a legal counsel in a business environment
  • Experience advising trading, marketing, or commercial teams in a fast-paced transactional environment
  • General working knowledge of corporate law and procedures
  • Refined interpersonal verbal and written communication skills, including written, telephonic and electronic communication skills
