General Counsel

Marathon Petroleum seeks a detail-oriented General Counsel to support our continued growth across Lincoln and beyond. The appeal is layered — $73,000 - $110,000, a part-time rhythm, general ownership, and a Marathon Petroleum crew that backs bold calls.

Key Responsibilities

• Bridge Deposition Preparation and Policy Drafting so neither team works in the dark
• Keep senior expectations grounded in what the part-time role can deliver
• Hold Lincoln vendors to the standard we promised our users
• Find the feedback-hungry workaround when the official path is blocked
• Keep Marathon Petroleum's Corporate Governance pipeline humming without constant hand-holding
• Execute core General Counsel duties with accuracy and consistency

What You'll Bring

• Hands-on general experience that holds up to follow-up questions
• The composure to deliver bad news early and clearly
• The instinct to ask "what would change your mind?" before debating
• The kind of empathy that makes hard feedback land softly
• Comfort owning the unglamorous middle of a part-time project

Marathon Petroleum grew out of a Lincoln, NE research lab and never lost its quality-focused, question-everything approach to Negotiation. Burnout is treated as a system bug at Marathon Petroleum, not a badge of question-everything honor.

You’ll receive $73,000 - $110,000, a hybrid schedule, and a personalized development plan tailored to your general career goals.

The Marathon Petroleum team is scaling in Lincoln, NE, and we are hiring for it now.
