We’re hiring a Legal Counsel in Paris.

Looking to join a company that's making a difference? Sunrock is unstoppable. Young, but full of experience. Happy, but dead serious when it comes to achieving our goals. We are growing fast. Constantly broadening our scope. We are working with European companies, organizations and governments on a bespoke clean energy strategy, and we are the number one in large-scale solar projects. Sunrock arranges it all; feasibility studies, subsidy applications, financing, and insurance. From the operation and management of solar parks to the utilization of the clean energy generated by them.


Since 2020 Sunrock has grown to more than 180 employees in the Netherlands, Germany, and France and has realized 500 MWp of solar energy and an additional 2GWp in development.

Due to the rapid growth of the company in the French market, we are looking for a proactive and enterprising Legal Counsel France.


The team

You will work on a day-to-day basis in the multi-disciplinary client team based in Paris, consisting of colleagues from operations, commerce and finance and together you will work on developing and realizing solar projects on large-scale rooftops in France.

  • Negotiate and draft various agreements (e.g. leases/engineering, procurement and construction agreements/power purchase agreements);
  • Take up various ad-hoc legal questions from within the organization;
