The Law School at the University of Chicago is seeking qualified applicants for a full-time position leading the Corporate Lab Transactional Clinic. The position would begin July 1, 2013. The position would be on the Law School's clinical professor track, which culminates in long-term renewable contracts. The attorney who fills the position will have primary responsibility for directing the Corporate Lab Transactional Clinic, which provides students with a forum for working closely with legal teams at various major companies (including those in the technology, consulting, telecommunications, finance, healthcare, insurance, and emerging-business sectors). The Corporate Lab Transactional Clinic aims to teach practical legal skills and knowledge both by having students work on actual projects and through classroom instruction and discussion. The position will also involve teaching non-clinical courses related to business topics and transactional skills topics.

Candidates must have a J.D.; must have at least three years of relevant experience, and must be admitted to or eligible for admission to the Illinois bar. Candidates who teach in a law school legal clinic or who have prior experience supervising or teaching law students or other attorneys are also strongly preferred. Excellent writing, editing, and supervision skills are required.

Each candidate should submit a curriculum vita or resume, a list of references, a writing sample, a detailed description of the candidate's relevant practice experience and teaching experience, and course evaluations from prior teaching experience if any. Other material relevant to your candidacy may be included as well. Candidates must apply on line and upload application material at: https://academiccareers.uchicago.edu/applicants/Central?quickFind=52827  

All application material must be received by June 21, 2013.
