Role Summary
Range Energy is seeking a Senior Corporate & Securities Counsel to help guide the company through its next stage of growth and build the legal infrastructure needed to operate as a public company.
Reporting to the General Counsel and Chief Strategy Officer, you will serve as the company’s primary in-house securities lawyer. You will work closely with executive leadership, the Board of Directors, Finance, outside counsel, auditors, investor relations, and other teams across the company.
Initially, this role will focus heavily on capital markets, transaction execution, corporate governance, disclosure, and public-company readiness. Over time, you will take primary responsibility for Range’s ongoing securities compliance, SEC reporting, Board and committee governance, equity matters, and related corporate legal work.
This is not a role where every issue is handed to outside counsel. You will be expected to develop practical recommendations, prepare first drafts, manage internal processes, and know when specialized outside advice is needed. You will help build the function, not simply maintain an established one.
