HQC US is seeking a Counsel to assist with its growing Commercial & Industrial engineering, procurement, and construction business.

The Counsel’s primary focus will be supporting HQC US with legal needs arising in connection with the engineering, procurement and construction of solar, solar plus battery energy storage, and standalone battery energy storage projects in the Commercial & Industrial space, but will also have the opportunity to assist on Utility Scale projects. These needs include reviewing, drafting, and effectively negotiating EPC Agreements, service contracts, subcontracts, supply contracts, and other construction-related agreements.  This position reports to the General Counsel or another senior management personnel that the President of the Company may designate.  This is a full-time position that reports to HQC US’s Irvine office and may require some limited travel.  Preference will be given to candidates located in Southern California; however, this position may be remote for the right candidate.
