• Advise Sales, Consulting Services, Finance, Legal, and other internal stakeholders on contract structure, obligations, risks, fallback positions, and negotiation strategy.
• Support the contract lifecycle from intake and initial review through execution, implementation, renewal, amendment, and closeout.
• Identify, assess, document, and elevate contractual, commercial, operational, privacy, security, and compliance risks.
• Prepare contract summaries, approval materials, and risk assessments that clearly communicate material commitments, deviations, and required actions.
• Maintain and improve contract templates, playbooks, clause libraries, negotiation guidance, and contracting processes.
• Manage legal intake, coordinate stakeholder input, and support assignment and prioritization of contracting matters.
• Identify and implement opportunities to improve contracting operations, reduce cycle times, increase data quality, and strengthen cross-functional collaboration.
• Extract and maintain key obligations, renewal dates, and other contract data for business use; provide guidance, mentorship, and informal training to other contracts professionals as appropriate.

What you'll likely bring

• Demonstrated expertise in negotiating SaaS, cloud services, software licensing, professional services, data processing, confidentiality, and other technology-related agreements.
• Strong understanding of commercial contracting principles, contract lifecycle management, legal terminology, and risk-based decision-making.
• Ability to balance legal and business considerations, exercise sound judgment, and resolve complex issues within established policies and escalation guidelines.
• Strong written, verbal, interpersonal, and facilitation skills, with the ability to communicate effectively with executives, attorneys, customers, and cross-functional stakeholders.
• Highly organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage a substantial workload, prioritize competing demands, maintain confidentiality, and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.

What could set you apart

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent relevant experience required.
• Five or more years of experience in contract management, commercial contracting, legal operations, or a related field.
• Two or more years of experience supporting technology, software, SaaS, cloud, or professional services agreements, preferably in-house or within a corporate legal function.
• Demonstrated experience independently negotiating customer-facing commercial agreements, including agreements with enterprise customers.
• Experience partnering with Sales or other commercial organizations in a high-volume contracting environment.
• Experience with contract lifecycle management systems, contract automation tools, or legal operations platforms preferred; experience with Agiloft or similar systems is a plus.
