Job Description

We’re a fast-growing tech company expanding into new areas, and our teams rely on strong contract and procurement support to move quickly and compliantly. Our Global Legal Operations team plays a critical role in enabling the business, and we’re looking for a motivated early-career Legal Operations Specialist to join us.

This role reports to the Director of Global Legal Operations and serves as a key connector between Legal and internal business partners. You’ll support contract workflows, vendor processes, spend coordination, and legal systems—helping ensure operations run smoothly and efficiently.

We’re seeking someone with a solid foundation in a related field (such as contracts administration), strong attention to detail, curiosity, and a willingness to learn. You don’t need extensive legal operations experience—just critical thinking skills, organization, integrity, and a proactive, collaborative mindset.

If you’re excited to grow your skills, contribute to a fast-moving environment, and help “herd cats” in the best possible way, we’d love to hear from you.

Position Overview

The primary functions of this role center on core Legal Operations disciplines—including contract lifecycle management, spend management, and third-party due diligence—as well as close alignment with Finance and other cross functional stakeholders. This position frequently serves as a key liaison between the Legal team and internal business partners across the organization.

Key Responsibilities

To support a growing and dynamic team, areas of responsibility may evolve over time as new initiatives arise and organizational priorities shift. Key responsibilities may include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Contract Management
  • Assist with organizing and maintaining contract files by storing and applying metadata within the company’s document repository and Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) system

  • Draft basic contract amendments using approved company templates
  • Provide quick, frontline CLM support to cross functional business partners
• Procurement & Vendor Management
  • Initiate and track Purchase Order (PO) submissions within the company’s procurement system
  • Support internal partners through the PO process, acting as a primary point of contact for routine PO status and balance inquiries
  • Assist with vendor due diligence tasks, as requested
  • Provide additional procurement or vendor-related support aligned to team needs
• Administrative & Operational Support
  • Monitor system workflows, platform access, and shared in-boxes to ensure timely responses to intake and task queues
  • Provide general administrative and operational support as requested, based on evolving Legal team priorities
  • Assist in maintaining standard operating procedures, checklists, and process documentation
• Other Responsibilities / Areas for Growth
  • Show up as a good human: be respectful, competent, ethical and collaborative
  • Identify opportunities to streamline processes, share best practices, and improve efficiency across the Legal department’s systems, tools, and workflows
  • Build and maintain strong working relationships within the Legal team and with cross functional partners across the organization
  • Proactively seek opportunities to expand skills, take on new tasks, and grow with the Legal Operations function as it evolves

Qualifications

• 1–2 years of experience in Legal Operations, Contracts Management, Procurement support, Compliance, or a similar corporate operational role
• Relationship management experience is a plus
• Project management experience is a plus
• Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent experience) with a strong academic or performance record
• Ability to prioritize effectively, adapt to shifting demands, manage multiple tasks, and follow through consistently
• Strong attention to detail, organization, and accuracy
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across all levels of the company
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision while staying adaptable, patient under pressure, and proactive
• High proficiency in Microsoft Word and Excel
• Experience working with a Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) system preferred (e.g., SAP CLM, Apttus, Conga, etc.)
• Experience with electronic signature platforms preferred (e.g., DocuSign, Adobe Sign)

Personal Attributes

• Positive attitude with the ability to thrive in a fast paced, high output, team-oriented environment
• Demonstrated enthusiasm for solving problems, supporting teammates, and contributing to the company’s success
• Courteous, flexible, organized, reliable, proactive, and able to exercise sound judgment
• Committed to personal growth and development; actively seeks feedback and applies it
