Job description

Get AI-powered advice on this job and more exclusive features.

Etana is powering South Africa’s clean energy transition — and we’re looking for a Legal Associate who’s sharp, detail-driven, and ready to make an impact.

The renewable energy industry is growing fast, and we’re at the forefront, giving businesses access to cost-competitive clean power through the grid. Now we need a legal professional who can help us scale — ensuring our contracts, compliance, and partnerships are watertight as we grow.

You bring the precision.

We bring the mission.

⚖️ Together, we’ll help South Africa decarbonise — contract by contract.

What You’ll Do

  • Draft, review, and refine NDAs, LOIs, MOUs, and more.
  • Support negotiations and manage documentation for customer and generator PPAs.
  • Coordinate contract execution — from final reviews to signatures.
  • Own documentation and CP management during financial close.
  • Maintain an organised, up-to-date repository of contracts.
  • Track obligations, milestones, and compliance under PPAs.
  • Act as a bridge between commercial, operations, and finance teams.
  • Report on contract status, compliance, and risk exposure.
  • Stay sharp on regulatory changes shaping the energy sector.

What We’re Looking For

  • An analytical and solutions-oriented thinker with a proactive mindset.
  • Meticulous and process-driven, with a sharp eye for detail.
  • Practical and grounded, able to navigate complexity with sound judgment.
  • Clear and confident in communication, with the ability to engage across teams.
  • Discreet and composed, especially when handling commercially sensitive or high-stakes matters.
  • What Sets you Apart

  • 3+ years’ experience in a legal role (attorney or paralegal) — energy or infrastructure sector preferred.
  • Familiarity with PPAs (a big plus).
  • Strong command of Microsoft Office and contract management tools.
  • Note
