A fast-growing, industry-leading organization is seeking a smart, motivated Commercial Contracts Counsel to join its dynamic Legal Team. This attorney will provide full-lifecycle legal support for the company's contract processes, from drafting and negotiating agreements to optimizing workflows within a contract lifecycle management (CLM) system.

As a key member of a lean, collaborative legal department, you will play an integral role in enhancing the company's contracting infrastructure, improving efficiencies, and supporting internal stakeholders across the business. This is a hands-on role for a detail-oriented attorney who thrives in a high-performance, relationship-driven environment.

The role is in-office (one day WFH) and requires a consistent presence at the company's headquarters in Miami's Brickell district. The team strongly values collaboration, accountability, and the cultural impact of being together during the work week.

Key Responsibilities

Contract Drafting & Negotiation

  • Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of vendor and commercial contracts, including NDAs, MSAs, SOWs, order forms, amendments, terminations, assignments, and related documents.
  • Identify legal, operational, and commercial risks, proposing practical solutions aligned with business priorities.

Legal Research & Analysis

  • Conduct research to support contract interpretation and business decision-making.
  • Prepare clear and concise contract summaries and executive-level briefings.
  • Contract Optimization & M&A Integration
  • Support contract consolidation and restructuring related to acquisitions, including drafting terminations, assignments, and related documents.
  • Partner with internal stakeholders to streamline workflows and improve the contracting process.
  • Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM)
  • Maintain and enhance templates, playbooks, protocols, and internal processes.
  • Manage contract trackers to ensure timely reviews in accordance with SLAs.
  • Prepare agreements for execution using DocuSign or similar tools.
  • Maintain an organized database of executed contracts and lead its transition into the company's CLM system, ensuring appropriate permissions and metadata accuracy.
  • Assist with implementing new workflows and functionality within the CLM platform.

    • Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Deliver high-quality service to internal teams, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and efficiency.
  • Build strong partnerships with stakeholders and senior leadership across the organization.
  • Support additional legal department initiatives, projects, and operational improvements as needed.

    • Qualifications & Experience

  • J.D. from an accredited law school; member in good standing of a U.S. state bar.
  • 3+ years of relevant experience in contract drafting, review, and negotiation.
  • Strong experience with enterprise-level vendor, supplier, technology, and software agreements.
  • Experience with CLM systems and technology implementation is a significant plus.
  • Prior in-house experience is preferred but not required.

    • Core Competencies & Personal Attributes

  • Demonstrated expertise in drafting and negotiating complex vendor and supplier contracts.
  • Highly self-sufficient with the ability to manage multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment.
  • Excellent judgment and the ability to balance legal risk with business goals.
  • Proactive, hardworking, organized, and results-oriented.
  • Comfortable interacting with team members at all levels.
  • Exceptional organization, attention to detail, and follow-through.
  • Strong communication skills—written, verbal, and interpersonal.
  • Team-oriented mindset with the ability to build trust and credibility quickly.
  • High integrity and a desire to contribute to a growing, mission-driven organization.

    • Compensation & Benefits
