Build the Future with Us — EquipmentShare is Hiring a Corporate Development Counsel

At EquipmentShare, we’re not just filling a role — we’re assembling the best team on the planet to build something that’s never been built before. We’re on a mission to transform an industry that’s been stuck in the past by empowering contractors and communities through innovative technology, real-time support, and a team that truly cares.

We’re hiring a Corporate Development Counsel to support our Corporate HQ in Columbia, MO and we’re looking for someone who’s ready to grow with us, bring energy and drive to their work, and help us build the future of construction. You will be responsible for managing the legal aspects of our M&A and strategic investment activities from start to finish—from initial structuring and due diligence to negotiation, closing, and integration. This is a highly visible position that requires close collaboration with senior leadership, business teams, and stakeholders across the company. The ideal candidate is a "deal-person" at heart who balances expert legal advice with a pragmatic, business-oriented mindset.

Primary Responsibilities

• Structure, draft, and negotiate key transaction documents for acquisitions, divestitures, and strategic investments (e.g., term sheets, LOIs, merger agreements, asset purchase agreements, stock purchase agreements, and investment/shareholder agreements).
• Lead and manage the end-to-end legal due diligence process. This includes coordinating internal specialists (e.g., IP, privacy, employment, tax), managing virtual data rooms, identifying and quantifying key risks, and summarizing findings for business stakeholders.
• Serve as the primary legal advisor to the Corporate Development team and other business leaders. Provide strategic and tactical advice on deal structures, risk-shifting, and negotiation strategy.
• Partner with stakeholders across the organization (Finance, Tax, HR, Operations, and Product) to ensure all functional aspects of a transaction are addressed and that the deal aligns with business objectives.
• Manage and oversee outside counsel on M&A and investment transactions, ensuring high-quality work, cost-effectiveness, and alignment with our company's goals.
• Support post-closing integration efforts to ensure a smooth transition and the realization of deal value.
• Help develop and refine our M&A "playbook," including templates, checklists, and internal processes to drive efficiency and consistency.
