Acadia is looking for a dynamic attorney with at least 3 to 5 years of experience in a sophisticated commercial real estate practice to serve as an Assistant General Counsel. This lawyer will work on acquisitions, dispositions, financings and joint ventures, and will regularly participate in strategic discussions with business teams at the company, giving this individual the opportunity to be a meaningful contributor to the organization’s growth.  The candidate must have significant experience working on material transactional documents, including purchase and sale agreements, loan documents and joint venture agreements, and managing deal closings.
