Attorney

The Role

You'll join the agency's Legal Division, reporting to senior counsel, and provide legal advice and recommendations on actions, strategies, and issues across the organization — with a focus on real estate and construction-related matters for public projects.

• Negotiate, draft, and review license agreements and other contracts, including Letters of Intent, Memoranda of Understanding, Contracts of Sale, Licenses, Leases, and SNDAs
• Draft assignment and assumption agreements between public entities
• Review zoning exhibits and other real estate-related documents

What You Need

• Juris Doctor from an accredited law school
• Admission to the New York State Bar
• 3–5 years of legal experience after Bar admission
• Construction or building code experience strongly preferred; land use and/or real estate experience preferred
• Strong drafting, negotiation, and communication skills, and the ability to juggle multiple assignments on tight deadlines

Why This One's Worth a Look

Three months of government agency experience is a genuine resume-builder — public sector legal work opens doors, and short assignments like this one have a way of turning into longer relationships.
