Orlando, United States Florida Realtors Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

Florida Realtors, the state's largest trade association, boasts a rich dedicated history of serving our members, the real estate community, and Florida homeowners for over a century. We stand as a key business partner for Realtors statewide, providing value-adding programs and services, outstanding business contacts and networking opportunities, engaging educational opportunities, up-to-the-minute industry data and research, and powerful legislative representation. The association headquarters is located in Orlando, and the Office of Public Policy is located two blocks from the state capital in Tallahassee. We work tirelessly to advocate for our members, for homeownership for all, and to elevate the real estate industry in the Sunshine State.

Who We're Seeking
Florida Realtors is seeking a knowledgeable and personable attorney for a member-facing role which provides timely and accurate information on real estate related questions and needs.

  • Conducts legal research as requested by General Counsel or Associate General Counsel and prepares memoranda to summarize findings, analysis, and conclusions.
  • Drafts legal articles which summarize current legal issues or trends.

Requirements

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Proven ability to troubleshoot, organize, complete assignments, and complete goals on time and as defined.

Benefits
