A full-time, in-person role is required (at the firm’s office in Greenville, SC).  

The firm’s office is near Main Street in the heart of Greenville’s beautiful, award-winning downtown. Greenville is part of South Carolina’s largest metropolitan area by population and is located half-way between Atlanta and Charlotte (a two-hour drive to each). Further, Greenville is a one-hour drive from Asheville, NC and its majestic Smoky Mountains, a three-hour drive from Charleston, SC, and slightly farther from SC’s world-famous beaches. Some of the most beautiful lakes in the southeastern U.S. are less than a one-hour drive. Few places in the U.S. offer the quality and variety of nearby outdoor opportunities offered by Greenville. Greenville also has a thriving arts community and vibrant restaurant scene that is unrivaled by most of its peer cities. Accordingly, Greenville has been recognized and honored repeatedly in recent years as one of the best places to live in the U.S., including:
