About The Position

At RS, we are redefining how the world builds reliable energy infrastructure. We design and manufacture advanced composite utility poles that are lighter, stronger, and longer-lasting than traditional materials such as wood, steel, and concrete. Our poles are engineered for superior performance in the most demanding environments, providing utilities with a durable, low-maintenance, and sustainable solution for a smarter, more resilient grid. With operations in North America and customers across 30+ countries, RS is a leader in grid resilience, driven by our values of Safety, Respect, Resilience, and Teamwork. We are looking for an experienced Paralegal who's ready to step up, make an impact, and help shape the legal foundation of a fast-growing, mission-driven company. This is not a routine support role.

You will work directly with the SVP, Legal and senior leaders across the business, supporting corporate governance, contracts, compliance, and Board matters. If you're proactive, detail-oriented, and excited to contribute to a company that's redefining resilient infrastructure, this is your chance to make a real impact and grow alongside an industry leader.
