• Format, proofread, and edit for accuracy, clarity, readability, and compliance with Veeva policies.
• Maintain Veeva’s contract templates and processes for the timely and effective completion of Statements of Work, Change Orders, and related contracts.
• Proactively manage a workload that includes responsibility for multiple contracts and other tasks, as required, in a dynamic, deadline-driven environment.
• Ensure all contract timelines are met.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent relevant work experience.
• 4+ years of experience supporting contract development and/or contract operations in a dynamic, B2B environment.

• Exceptional organizational, project, and time management skills.
• Able to coordinate various levels of SMEs effectively to deliver complicated responses on-time.
• Able to effectively prioritize activities, and work successfully under time-sensitive deadlines.
• Strong proficiency in Microsoft Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), including the use of Styles in Word.
• Ability and willingness to work across North American time zones, as needed.
• Ability to work irregular and/or extended hours, as needed.
