Depending on the needs of the Legal Department and the Division, the duties of the Associate Counsel include representing the MTA and its operating agencies in transactions (contracts, agreements and associated documentation), client counseling, compliance, negotiations, dispute resolution, risk management, and (for Environmental and Condemnation Divisions) litigation matters, which are of increasing complexity and involve increasing levels of responsibility and independence. As an Associate Counsel in the Procurement & Contracts Division, you will be responsible for a wide range of procurement and transactional matters including: the drafting of solicitations for the MTA agencies as well as the negotiation of terms and conditions and other contract-related documents for a wide range of MTA procurements and inter-agency agreements including, but not limited to, those for purchases of goods, services, hardware, software, infrastructure and equipment contracts.
