McCarter and English’s Chambers-ranked Government Contracts group is seeking an experienced, diligent, and proactive government contracts associate to join our growing and dynamic team. Candidate must have strong analytical and writing skills, and should have at least 4-5 years’ experience (preferably in a law firm setting) with bid protests; cybersecurity; acquisition regulation (including FAR and DFARS) compliance; drafting REAs and claims, related claims analysis and counseling, and CDA claim litigation; federal subcontracting and related dispute and flow-down/compliance issues; multiple award contracts; and small business procurement. Intellectually curious self-starters with a demonstrable ability to work on certain matters independently, as appropriate, are strongly preferred. Experience with aerospace/defense, infrastructure/construction, life sciences/pharmaceutical, and/or manufacturing industries would be a plus. Strong academic background is required. The ideal candidate will be committed to a rise to partnership, and have an interest in and propensity for (if not experience with) written and oral “thought leadership” and, ultimately, client development. Location flexible across our offices. Experienced litigators are encouraged to apply; Virginia State Bar admission highly preferred.


The salary range for this position is $175,000 – $250,000 annually, depending on experience. If you have relevant experience and a desire to grow your career, please consider joining our team.
