• Serve as an accessible resource for routine contract-related questions from the sales team, including guidance on agreement status and signature routing.

• Manage contract records and workflow steps within Ironclad, helping keep repository information organized and current.

• Coordinate document circulation for execution and ensure agreements move efficiently through approval and signature processes.

• Use legal technology and AI-enabled tools to support contract review tasks, particularly for high-volume NDA analysis.

• Work closely with attorneys on the legal team to escalate non-standard issues and maintain consistency across contract operations.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of experience in contract administration, contract management, or a closely related legal operations role.

• Background supporting commercial contracting within a SaaS environment.

• Practical experience reviewing and negotiating nondisclosure agreements and handling routine order form terms.

• Strong working knowledge of Ironclad preferred, including contract workflow management and repository administration.

• Familiarity with contract processes connected to sales organizations and comfort supporting high-volume internal stakeholders.

• Experience using business tools such as Salesforce, Slack, and Google Sheets in a collaborative work environment.

• Ability to manage competing priorities, respond quickly to requests, and operate effectively in a fast-paced setting.

• Ability to work on-site on a full-time or hybrid basis.
