Job Context

This is a hands-on legal role for someone who thrives at the intersection of law, operations, and business velocity. You’ll assist with commercial contracts — drafting, negotiating, and closing deals across the full contract lifecycle while helping build the legal ops infrastructure that scales with the business.

What You’ll Do

About Simpro
Simpro Group is a global B2B SaaS company in the field service management space, helping trades and service businesses run smarter operations. With a presence across the US, Australia, and Europe, Simpro is scaling fast — and needs strong legal infrastructure to match. This role sits in Miami and reports into the CFO based in Los Angeles.
What You’ll Own
•  Draft, review, redline, and negotiate SaaS agreements, MSAs, NDAs, SOWs, vendor contracts, and partner agreements
•  Serve as a primary legal point of contact for the sales teams — a true business partner who moves deals forward, not a bottleneck
•  Understand how AI/LLMs work and legal issues with AI; negotiate contracts with customers for their purchase of AI products/services
•  Review and negotiate inbound technology and vendor contracts
•  Design and implement legal operations infrastructure — contract management, redlining automation, playbooks, and intake workflows (not just use them — build them)
•  Advise on data privacy and compliance matters including GDPR as they relate to commercial deals
•  Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Product, Finance, and Security to manage risk while supporting deal velocity
•  Collaborate closely with the Australia-based GC and legal team on global matters

What You’ll Bring

  • What We’re Looking For
    •  J.D. and active bar admission required
    •  5+ years of commercial contracts experience in a B2B SaaS or technology company
    •  Strong track record negotiating SaaS agreements with SMB and mid-market customers — you understand the deal cycle and how to close
    •  Hands-on experience designing and implementing legal automation — CMS buildouts, redlining workflows, contract playbooks (this is a must, not a nice-to-have)
    •  Solid grasp of data privacy regulations (GDPR) in the context of commercial agreements
    •  A communicator and collaborator first — someone sales actually wants to call, not avoid
    •  Self-starter who can operate independently in a lean, high-growth environment across time zones
    Why This One
    •  Ground-floor opportunity in the legal functionl
    •  Global company with real international exposure — US, APAC, and EMEA
    •  High-growth B2B SaaS with strong product-market fit and serious investment in scaling
