About the Role

Are you ready to unlock your true potential? Join a growing and global company where you can be part of a team that fuels supply chain solutions. Discover how you can make a significant impact.

We are seeking a detail-oriented and commercially minded Contracts Specialist to own the day-to-day negotiating, drafting, and management of TrueCommerce’s commercial contracts portfolio and high-volume automated contracting process.

This role manages a variety of agreements—primarily software-as-a-service (SaaS) agreements, reseller and referral agreements, amendments, non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), and more—and will engage and collaborate cross-functionally with Sales, Finance, IT, Security, Product, and Technology teams at all levels throughout the global organization. You will ensure that contracts follow the required processes and adequately protect the company’s interests, while helping to develop and continuously improve those processes. You will also serve as the first line to interpret contract requirements, obligations, and risk exposure, advising the business on the appropriate course of action, and will own intake-to-signature for vendor agreements on the procurement side. Additionally, this role supports day-to-day legal work across the company, including matters involving human resources, facilities, insurance/risk, litigation administration, M&A diligence, and corporate housekeeping.

We value our employees with competitive benefits and generous paid time off packages, flexible and casual work environments, career development, recognition programs and more!

This role is a remote opportunity.
