Legal Counsel (Generalist)

Full-time

Alba Renewables

Company Description

Alba Renewables develops and operates projects in the onshore wind, solar, and energy storage sectors across the Asia-Pacific region. The company manages the full lifecycle of renewable energy assets, from greenfield development through construction, operation, and commercialization, with a focus on attractive risk/reward markets.

Alba Renewables is building a portfolio of solar, wind and battery storage projects in the Philippines. We're looking for a hands-on in-house lawyer to be our legal partner across the business, from boardroom to project site.

This is a true generalist role. One day you'll be drafting board resolutions, the next you'll be negotiating an EPC contract or working through a DOE filing.

What You'll Do

Project Support

  • Support negotiation and drafting of EPC, supply, O&M, grid connection, offtake, project financing agreements as well as M&A transactions
  • Manage claims and disputes

General Legal Support

  • Manage corporate secretarial work for the company and its project SPVs
  • Advise management on day-to-day legal, operational and employment matters
  • Supervise external counsels, as needed
  • Oversee compliance with internal policies (including anti-bribery and corruption, anti-money laundering, procurement and third-party KYC screening, data privacy & ethics) and enforce enterprise risk management initiatives
  • Manage internal and external reporting obligations around compliance and risk

Qualifications

  • LLB or JD, and a member in good standing of the IBP
  • 6–10 years of post-bar experience, ideally a mix of top-tier law firm and in-house experience
  • Experience in energy, power or infrastructure projects (renewables a strong plus)
  • Strong contract drafting and negotiation skills
  • Sound commercial judgement and the confidence to work as the sole in-country lawyer
  • Nice to have: project finance or M&A exposure, FIDIC and PPA contract experience, Data Privacy Officer (DPO) experience, exposure to a multinational setting.
