Careers at Consilium Law
A modern outside general counsel practice. Being built deliberately, from the ground up.
What We Are Building
Consilium Law was founded in 2014 as an outside general counsel practice for growth companies in regulated industries. Clean energy, AI and machine learning, advanced manufacturing, enterprise technology, and oil and gas. The firm serves companies that need legal counsel who understands operations, not just the statute.
The next chapter is building the team. The firm will be adding attorneys on a partner track who want to help shape a modern outside general counsel practice instead of inheriting someone else's. That means real client ownership, real work on the firm's direction, and a path that does not require a fifteen-year run through a traditional pyramid.
Everything about this page is directional, not a job posting. Specific roles, compensation, and timing will be published when those decisions are made. The point of this page is to start a conversation with attorneys who would want to hear from the firm when that happens.
Who We Want to Hear From
Junior Attorney on a Partner Track
One to five years out. Bar-admitted somewhere, willing to sit for additional jurisdictions. You want client responsibility early and you want it to mean something.
Comfortable in Regulated Industries
Interest or experience in one or more of our sectors: clean energy, AI and machine learning, advanced manufacturing, enterprise technology, oil and gas. You do not have to be a subject-matter expert on day one. You have to be willing to become one.
AI Governance Curiosity
The firm's AI governance practice is growing fast. The EU AI Act, state AI laws, and vendor contracting are a rising share of the work. If you want to be part of that, say so.
A Builder's Mindset
You want to help shape the firm, not just log billable hours. You enjoy writing. You push back when the statute and the client need different things. You read SparkPoint and think about what you would write.
Direct Client Work
You want clients, not coverage. In a small firm, first-year and tenth-year attorneys are both in the room with the founder or the GC. That is a feature, not a bug.
Long-Term Orientation
The plan is to bring attorneys in who stay, grow, and eventually run the day-to-day. If you are looking for a stop on the way to someplace else, this is not that.
What We Are Not Ready to Say Yet
We are not posting a role today. Compensation, title, and exact start timing are decisions the firm will make in the coming months as the practice and the team settle into their next stage. When those details exist, they will be published here first.
If that sounds like a reason to move on, no hard feelings. If it sounds like a reason to reach out, that is the point of the page.
How to Get in Touch
The best opening is a short note with your resume and a paragraph on what you are looking for. No cover letter template. What you would want a client call to look like on day one is a better signal than what you did in law school.
Send a NoteNotes sent here are reviewed directly by the founding attorney. Response time is usually within a week.
