Requirements - Juris Doctor from an accredited law school and active bar membership in good standing, with the ability to obtain Nebraska admission or register as in-house counsel upon joining the organization.

At least 3 years of relevant legal experience in healthcare law, corporate compliance, regulatory practice, or a closely related field.

Working knowledge of corporate governance processes, legal documentation, and transactional due diligence activities.

Familiarity with federal healthcare regulations, including Medicare, Medicaid, fraud and abuse standards, and broader compliance or risk frameworks.

Strong ability to explain complex legal concepts in clear, practical terms for non-legal stakeholders and cross-functional teams.
