Projects Lawyer

Projects Associate - Energy & Infrastructure

A leading international law firm is looking to recruit an associate into its Projects team , advising on major energy, infrastructure and natural resources projects in the UK and internationally.

The team works across the full lifecycle of complex projects, with matters spanning renewables, nuclear and other power projects, oil & gas and petrochemicals, digital infrastructure and data centres, CCUS and low-carbon fuels, mining and commodities, and transport infrastructure .

The role offers particularly broad exposure to project development and commercial work , including:

• joint venture and shareholder arrangements;
• PPAs and other offtake agreements;
• construction and development contracts;
• concession agreements and other project documentation; and
• regulatory issues arising in the development and operation of major projects.

The practice is sector-focused rather than narrowly product-focused , so associates can also gain exposure to the financing and transactional aspects of projects, including project finance, acquisition finance and commodities-related financing.

Candidates do not need experience across every area. The team is interested in lawyers with a strong grounding in projects, energy or infrastructure who are keen to work across a diverse mix of major projects and emerging technologies.

This is an opportunity to join a highly regarded international practice and develop a genuinely broad projects skillset , spanning project development, commercial contracts, financing and regulatory matters.
