We're working with a leading multinational energy company who are looking for a South African qualified energy lawyer to support them for at least 6 months.
Following a lot of investment in to the region, the client has a number of energy projects, including gas projects, in South Africa. The projects are all large and complex, with a mix of infrastructure, energy commercial and corporate work. The deals are all progressing so the team would like support with additional expertise to help keep things moving swiftly.
The client needs someone with international energy projects experience to help run the corporate and commercial side.
You will be a mid to senior Projects and Infrastructure lawyer with renewables / energy experience. You'll also have previous experience with dealing with complex, international development deals.
This assignment will be full time, starting in January and is expected to run for at least 6 months. You can work remotely, however some time in the Cape Town office would be great.
If this sounds like you and you're looking for your next assignment, we'd love to hear from you!
