Construction (Energy) | Associate Director

We are working with a leading international law firm looking to appoint an Associate Director to its London non-contentious construction practice, with a dedicated focus on energy and energy transition projects. The firm has a well-established position in the energy market, advising developers, investors, funders and contractors across major renewable and infrastructure projects.

The hire is specifically aimed at an experienced senior lawyer who can operate with a high degree of autonomy. You will lead transactions, contract negotiations and due diligence workstreams, manage client stakeholders and supervise associates, taking responsibility for matters that would otherwise sit predominantly at partner level.

The Work

The work centres on the development, construction and operation of energy assets, including renewables, battery storage and grid-related projects . Matters involve EPC, BOP, supply and O&M agreements alongside FIDIC, NEC and bespoke contractual structures with scope to take on wider infrastructure mandates.

The ideal candidate will already be operating at Associate Director or equivalent senior level, with substantial UK energy-sector construction experience and a track record for leading negotiations on large-scale projects.
