Contract Analyst

A mid-sized engineering and consulting firm focused on environmental infrastructure is looking for a Contracts Analyst to support its legal and project delivery teams. This role involves in-depth contract evaluation, risk assessment, and collaboration with technical staff to ensure agreements are both legally sound and operationally practical.

We're seeking someone who thrives in a technical, compliance-driven environment-ideally with experience in industries like engineering, construction, utilities, or public infrastructure. The right candidate will be proactive, detail-oriented, and capable of translating complex contract language into actionable insights.

This is a strategic position-not a document processing role. You'll be expected to engage critically with contract terms, flag potential issues, and propose meaningful revisions.

Key Responsibilities :

• Analyze contracts and related documents for legal risk, clarity, and alignment with internal standards and applicable regulations
• Draft and revise contract language, offering clear and constructive feedback
• Work closely with engineers and project leads to understand project requirements and reflect them accurately in agreements
• Participate in negotiations with external partners, clients, and subcontractors
• Contribute to the development and refinement of internal templates and specifications
• Prepare legal documents such as NDAs, teaming agreements, and amendments
• Conduct research on relevant laws and regulations (e.g., labor codes, licensing rules, procurement laws)
• Help maintain compliance with licensing and registration requirements across multiple jurisdictions
• Assist in drafting technical specifications and engineering-related contract language
