You'll maintain the accuracy of our entity records, coordinate board and shareholder approvals across multiple jurisdictions, route governance documents such as minutes, resolutions, and consents, and manage signature, delegation-of-authority, and filing processes. You'll be the first point of contact for governance questions coming through the Corporate Governance queue.

You'll also partner with Tax, Treasury, Finance, and business teams on entity-related projects and monitor regulatory changes that affect our entities. This role calls for someone who's highly organized, go-to expert, comfortable juggling multiple deadlines across time zones, and handling confidential corporate information with discretion.

- Prepare and route board and committee meeting minutes, resolutions, and consents for approval, and maintain the official corporate record and annual board calendar.
- Own delegation of authority matrix and signature routing and execution for directors and senior leadership, following established authorization and signatory processes across jurisdictions. Facilitate notarization, apostille, and legalization requests across the company, coordinating with executive assistants, directors, and other internal partners.

- Proven experience autonomously owning corporate governance and entity management operations for a multinational organization, with minimal day-to-day oversight.

- Comfortable managing outside counsel and vendor relationships across multiple international jurisdictions, including triaging work between in-house, outside counsel, and third-party services providers.
- Exceptional organizational skills and exceptional attention to detail, with the ability to manage a high volume of concurrent deadlines across multiple jurisdictions.

Search Paralegal Jobs in TexasParalegal Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies sponsor visas for paralegals in Texas?
Large law firms with Texas offices, including Baker McKenzie, Vinson & Elkins, and Haynes and Boone, have histories of sponsoring foreign national paralegals. Corporate legal departments at energy companies like ExxonMobil and Chevron Phillips Chemical, as well as technology firms headquartered in Austin, also sponsor paralegal roles. In-house legal teams at large employers tend to have more established immigration infrastructure than smaller boutique firms.
Which visa types are most common for paralegal roles in Texas?
The H-1B visa is the most frequently used visa category for paralegals in Texas, provided the role qualifies as a specialty occupation requiring at least a bachelor's degree in a specific field, such as legal studies or paralegal studies. The TN visa is available to Canadian and Mexican nationals in qualifying paralegal roles. The O-1A is an option for candidates with demonstrable extraordinary ability in their legal specialty.
Which cities in Texas have the most paralegal sponsorship jobs?
Houston leads the state for paralegal sponsorship opportunities, anchored by its concentration of energy-sector corporate legal teams and major law firms. Dallas follows closely, with a strong presence of financial, real estate, and corporate litigation practices. Austin has grown significantly as technology company legal departments have expanded there. San Antonio and Fort Worth offer smaller but active markets, particularly in healthcare and defense-adjacent legal work.
How to find paralegal visa sponsorship jobs in Texas?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for international candidates seeking visa sponsorship roles, including paralegal positions in Texas. You can filter directly by state and role to surface employers who have actively sponsored foreign nationals in the past. This is more targeted than general job searching because it surfaces employers with demonstrated sponsorship patterns, helping you prioritize outreach toward firms with existing immigration infrastructure rather than starting from scratch.
Are there state-specific considerations for paralegals seeking sponsorship in Texas?
Texas does not require paralegals to hold a state license, which removes one barrier for internationally trained candidates, but employers still expect credentials from recognized paralegal programs or a relevant degree. The Texas Workforce Commission determines prevailing wage benchmarks that H-1B sponsors must meet. Houston and Dallas are the dominant hubs for energy and corporate law sponsorships, so candidates with experience in those practice areas may find the path to sponsorship more straightforward.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored paralegal jobs in Texas?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
