We’re hiring a Corporate Development Counsel to support our Corporate HQ in Columbia, MO and we’re looking for someone who’s ready to grow with us, bring energy and drive to their work, and help us build the future of construction. You will be responsible for managing the legal aspects of our M&A and strategic investment activities from start to finish—from initial structuring and due diligence to negotiation, closing, and integration.

Lead and manage the end-to-end legal due diligence process. This includes coordinating internal specialists (e.g., IP, privacy, employment, tax), managing virtual data rooms, identifying and quantifying key risks, and summarizing findings for business stakeholders.
Serve as the primary legal advisor to the Corporate Development team and other business leaders. Provide strategic and tactical advice on deal structures, risk-shifting, and negotiation strategy.
Partner with stakeholders across the organization (Finance, Tax, HR, Operations, and Product) to ensure all functional aspects of a transaction are addressed and that the deal aligns with business objectives.
Manage and oversee outside counsel on M&A and investment transactions, ensuring high-quality work, cost-effectiveness, and alignment with our company's goals.
Support post-closing integration efforts to ensure a smooth transition and the realization of deal value.
Help develop and refine our M&A "playbook," including templates, checklists, and internal processes to drive efficiency and consistency.
