Job description

Eudia Counsel is the legal solutions business of Eudia, combining experienced legal and delivery professionals with AI-powered technology to help legal teams work smarter, move faster and achieve better outcomes.

We support organizations through legal secondments, managed legal services and our US AI-native law firm, an Arizona ABS law firm. Powered by the Eudia platform, we bring together legal expertise, experienced professionals and technology to provide flexible, high-quality support tailored to each customer’s needs.

Whether augmenting an in-house legal team, managing a complex legal workstream or helping organizations adopt AI, Eudia Counsel provides practical solutions designed around the way modern legal teams work.

Eudia Counsel is part of Eudia, an AI company redefining the future of legal work through AI-powered Augmented Intelligence. Backed by $105M in Series A funding led by General Catalyst, Eudia works with some of the world’s largest organizations, including Cargill, Coherent, DHL and Duracell.

Together, Eudia and Eudia Counsel are building a new model bringing legal expertise and AI-powered technology together to deliver more flexible, scalable and effective solutions for legal teams.

The Role

As a Contracts Manager, you'll put deep, hands-on contracts expertise to work at the intersection of law and technology - drafting, reviewing, and negotiating agreements for some of the world's most recognisable companies using Eudia's proprietary, market leading AI platform. You'll be embedded within our Delivery team and partner closely with our Commercial team to ensure seamless deployment of our AI-Augmented services, leading to high-quality customer outcomes.

You’ll work across a broad range of agreement types - including MSAs, NDAs, SaaS agreements, DPAs, procurement contracts, purchase and sales agreements, and vendor agreements - bringing real drafting, review, and negotiation experience to bear to produce high quality, timely deliverables for our customers.

Your success will be measured by your ability to understand our customers' legal requirements, draft and negotiate complex agreements and partner with technical colleagues to continue developing our AI platforms.

What You'll Do
  • Draft, review and negotiate complex agreements
  • Review customer agreements and engage directly with customer stakeholders to understand how drafting, review, and negotiation actually happen in practice - identifying gaps between documented guidance and reality
  • Work with Eudia’s product team on refining the output based on your own observations and customer feedback
  • Carefully track review speed for each customer and measure the improvements secured through implementation of the technology
  • Provide feedback to Eudia's product team on what's working, what isn't, and lessons learned through live contracting work
  • Act as a mentor for junior team members, helping them to develop and carrying out checks to ensure consistency and accuracy across their reviews
About You

You're a contracts professional who has spent 10+ years drafting, reviewing and negotiating a broad range of commercial agreements and who is genuinely excited about the idea of using technology to change how that work gets done. You're just as comfortable in a room with a customer's legal team working through the nuance of a playbook as you are owning your own contracting workload.

Key Requirements
  • 10+ years' experience reviewing, negotiating on a wide range of commercial agreements
  • Proven experience writing, refining, or implementing contract playbooks either in-house or in a consulting/delivery capacity
  • Familiarity with legal tech platforms (CLM, AI contract review tools, workflow automation) and comfortable learning new systems quickly
  • Strong customer-facing skills - confident leading conversations with senior legal stakeholders at large, complex organisations
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, high growth environment where strategies and processes evolve rapidly.
  • Passionate about developing those around you through thoughtful feedback, guidance, and hands-on mentorship
Qualifications
  • Law degree (LLB) or equivalent
  • Legal qualification (solicitor or barrister) a plus, though not essential - depth of hands-on contracts experience matters mostExperience within an in-house legal department, an alternative legal solution provider, or a legal technology environment is a plus
Why You'll Love Working Here
  • Impactful Work - Be part of a team at the forefront of AI innovation and Augmented Intelligence
  • Fortune 500 Exposure - Work alongside F500 legal teams to drive AI innovation and redefine how complex work gets done
  • Growth Opportunities - Work in an environment that encourages professional growth and exploration of new ideas
  • Dynamic Culture - Join a group of passionate, driven individuals committed to making a difference
