Job Description
Our vision of “Together, we are best at people” is more than just a slogan - it’s reality! Terracon has been named “Best place to work” numerous times over the past few years and has a culture focused on collaboration, excellence, and growth. To support our employee’s need for work/life balance, we have a hybrid work environment. Come to the office twice a week (perhaps more when needed) to collaborate with peers face to face. The rest of the week, you are free to work from home, if that is your choice. (NOTE: while this is a hybrid role, the position needs to be filled by a candidate located in the greater Kansas City area.) As an employee-owner, you will have the benefit of participating in our success as a shareholder of the company and the opportunity to work with co-workers who are talented, and fun! Terracon’s success can be attributed to valued employees who grow their careers through continual learning and exciting job opportunities. If this is a good fit for what you’re looking for, we invite you to apply.
Our legal team has an immediate opening for a Legal Specialist. In this role, you will provide a variety of general support to the corporate legal department including coordination with the contract review process, serving as the primary point of contract for offices, and organizing the legal department’s filing and monitoring system for contracts, business licenses, litigation, and invoices.
