A partner-level appointment of this kind turns on what actually moves with you, far more than on any headline figure.

Seeking a senior lateral partner to lead and grow a busy energy practice in Houston. The role combines client-facing work, matter leadership, and business development across transactional, regulatory and project matters in the energy sector.

The partner will manage and mentor a team, take primary responsibility for major engagements, and help drive practice strategy and origination in the region. Strong local market relationships and a proven track record in energy transactions and regulatory work are essential.

Portable book of business of $2M+ (USD)
Admitted to practice in Texas (or able to obtain admission)
Established track record of originating and leading energy matters (oil & gas, projects, midstream, or similar)
Proven leadership and team management experience; strong client development skills

If the fit is not obvious on paper, it is still worth a conversation — these mandates flex around the right practice.
