Job Description

Location: Salt Lake City, UT (in-office, hybrid)

Requirements

Experienced: You are an attorney in good standing and eligible for admission or registration in Utah, with meaningful experience in an in-house role — or as outside counsel with direct accountability to business clients — at a high-growth company, energy or infrastructure business, independent power producer, project developer, or similarly complex organization. Exposure to project finance, bankability, or energy development is a strong plus, though we're equally interested in strong generalists ready to grow into the space.
Sound Judgment: You know how to distinguish real risk from noise, and you're comfortable giving clear, practical advice, including when the answer is "no", while knowing when to escalate.
Operationally Modern: You use legal technology, data, and automation thoughtfully to improve speed, consistency, and insight—without compromising confidentiality, privilege, or professional judgment.
Builder Mentality: You are comfortable starting from scratch or building on our existing processes and moving between higher-level advice and more detailed execution. You create fit-for-stage structures and controls rather than importing process for its own sake.
Mission-Driven: You are energized by Zanskar’s mission and by a high-volume, first-of-kind environment where no two weeks look the same. You bring sound judgment, curiosity, and resilience to problems that may not have an established playbook.
Commercial Instinct: You translate legal risk into clear options and help teams reach durable decisions. You know when to move quickly, when to escalate, and when the company needs an unambiguous no.
