Job description

Corporate Counsel — Construction

Fort Lauderdale, FL | On-site, 5 days/week


The Company

Premier Pursuit is working with a multi-billion dollar construction company as it expands its in-house legal team. A rare chance to join a sophisticated, well-resourced legal department at a market leader.


The Role

We're seeking someone experienced to be a true do-it-all construction attorney supporting one of the company's business units in Fort Lauderdale. This is a generalist role for someone with a varied construction background who can move fluidly across the issues that arise on active projects.

In a given week you might negotiate a subcontract, pursue a payment claim, work through a bond dispute, and walk a job site to assess defective work. You'll support all legal aspects of the business with minimal ramp-up — the team is busy now and this hire is needed immediately.


Qualifications

  • J.D. and active license (Florida admission or eligibility)
  • 6+ years of relevant experience, with substantial construction exposure
  • A generalist construction background across contracts, claims, disputes, and project support


Location & Compensation

On-site five days/week in Fort Lauderdale; no remote or hybrid. Compensation is competitive and flexible, commensurate with experience.
