Tesla Hires Former Lawyer at Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co for Senior Legal Position
Tesla Inc has hired former Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co lawyer Derek Windham to helm its in-house corporate and securities legal team, according to his LinkedIn account, as the electric carmaker continues to shuffle its law department.
Windham started at Austin, Texas-based Tesla in July as deputy general counsel for corporate and securities, according to LinkedIn. He did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday on his move.
Neither Tesla nor its acting head of legal, David Searle, immediately responded to requests for comment confirming Windham’s hire Monday.
Windham most recently spent seven years as vice president for corporate, securities, governance and finance at Spring, Texas-based HPE, according to his LinkedIn account.
