About the Role - This position is open to part-time or full-time hours. Working in Fiscal and Agency Affairs is not your typical legal government job.

We don’t just practice one area of law, we practice many. Our division serves as the agency’s in-house counsel and, as you might imagine, our work involves a wide-ranging variety of legal areas – everything from state fiscal law to cybersecurity to federal securities law, plus the random questions that pop up. We support one-of-a-kind programs like the only 529 college savings plans in Texas and the first-in-the nation state-owned bullion depository, and often add new ones like the new broadband development and opioid abatement grant programs. Because nobody does exactly what we do, we find attorneys with: (1) the research skills necessary to dive in and learn new areas, (2) the years of experience needed to spot issues, and (3) the creativity to find solutions. And, because our team genuinely enjoys working together, we want to hire someone who values our collaborative environment.

Experience drafting legislation and administrative rules, and advising on open meetings. Experience related to the financial services industry or knowledge of finance. Licenses and Certifications Must possess an active license in good standing to practice law in the State of Texas. In this role you will: Provide clear, concise, timely and accurate legal advice to senior- and executive-level agency staff while establishing and maintaining effective working relationships.

Draft well-written and well-researched legal memoranda and other complex legal documents. Review and revise agency forms, agency publications, open meetings agenda notices, and other agency documents to ensure accuracy and legal compliance. Draft, in collaboration with agency subject matter experts, well-researched, clear and concise legislation and administrative rules affecting the agency and other statewide issues.
