If this is you, then read on.

Please apply only if you have experience providing legal support regarding electric transmission issues impacting Regional Transmission Organizations, their members, and stakeholders. Our ideal candidate will have experience handling matters involving the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, National Electric Reliability Corporation, and/or state public utility commissions, and understand the key players in the electric industry. This person will work on a wide variety of legal and business matters focused mainly on: federal and state energy regulatory proceedings, risk identification, and mitigation strategies, all in order to contribute to and influence the strategic direction of the company.
