Assistant General Corporate Counsel (Delray Beach)

Real Estate Investment Company (residential and commercial properties) located in Delray Beach, FL looking for Assistant In-House General Counsel to handle all real estate transactional matters for our rapidly-growing company. The talented person we hire will succeed our current General Counsel after training under him and establishing yourself with our company. So for now, you will be hired to be the "#2" of our legal department.

This is an IN OFFICE position - it is NOT remote/hybrid. Our office is located in beautiful downtown Delray Beach.

We research, purchase and develop land all over Florida (residential and commercial) in areas that are very desirable but zoned poorly. We work with lobbyists and other land use and zoning attorneys to get our land rezoned more favorably for our investment purposes. We deal with land transactions in the 6-7 figure ranges.

We're looking for a seasoned commercial real estate attorney and/or transactional law attorney who is familiar with and experienced with contract formation, contract negotiation, leases, negotiations, zoning, real estate matters, land use, land purchase agreements, purchase and sale agreements (PSA), and other transactional general counsel experience. Ideal candidates will have at least 4 years experience in these areas.

We have a long-tenured General Counsel who handles all of these matters for us, however, he may retire in the near future so he would like to train and guide an Assistant General counsel to help groom this candidate to eventually take over as head general counsel for our lucrative business.

MUST BE CURRENTLY LICENSED TO PRACTICE LAW IN FLORIDA.

Excellent Base Salary + Bonus + Health Insurance + Dental/Vision + PTO
