Job Description


Worcester Investments is a family-owned and operated real estate investment company based in Kansas City, Missouri. After being founded in 2006, the family business began acquiring rental property in Oregon, where they lived. In 2007, Worcester Investments expanded into the Midwest through a real estate connection and has continued to grow steadily each year.

Today, Worcester Communities oversees 3,000+ units across multiple cities, a testament to their strategic vision. Join us on our journey to redefine multifamily living and maximize investor returns.

Whew! Still with us? Cool. Let?s talk about where you?d fit in:

We're hiring our next General Counsel ? and we?re not looking for average.

At Worcester Investments, we move fast, think big, and build with purpose. We're entering a transformational phase of growth, and our legal function is no exception.

That?s where you come in.

We're seeking an Enterpriser?someone who thrives in ambiguity, sees opportunity where others see roadblocks, and wants to grow something real. Whether you're a rising legal star with 3?7 years of experience and big entrepreneurial energy, or a seasoned commercial real estate attorney looking to take your seat at the leadership table, this role is your chance to build, lead, and impact the future of a company that?s on a billion-dollar trajectory.

What you'll do:

  • Own legal strategy for transactions, acquisitions, and investments

  • Lead due diligence, contract negotiation, and financing efforts

  • Manage risk, compliance, and litigation (with the support of outside counsel)

  • Collaborate across teams and with leadership to drive results

What makes you a fit:

  • J.D. and Missouri/Kansas Bar eligibility

  • 5?10 years of legal experience (or 3?7 if you're scrappy, smart, and hungry to grow)

  • A passion for real estate, deals, and entrepreneurial growth

  • Tech-forward thinking and interest in AI are huge pluses

This is not your standard in-house role. We're offering more than just a seat at the table?we?re offering ownership, both literally and figuratively.
