    o Coordinate with internal Legal Counsel to align contract changes with company policies and divestiture requirements.

    o Manage version control and ensure accurate execution and filing of all contract documents.

    o Maintain a centralized and well-organized repository of in-scope contracts, categorizing by business unit, vendor, and separation status.

    o Ensure that all contracts are properly tagged, searchable, and easily accessible to stakeholders.

    o Help maintain audit-ready documentation throughout the project lifecycle.

  • 5+ years of experience in contract management, legal operations, procurement support, or related roles.
  • Strong understanding of contract terms, legal language, and common procurement clauses.
  • Experience supporting M&A, divestitures, or contract separation initiatives is preferred.
  • Comfortable working with sourcing and legal teams to bridge legal and operational contract needs.
  • Experience with CLM tools (e.g., DocuSign CLM, Ironclad, SAP Ariba, etc.) and document management systems.
  • Strong attention to detail, organizational skills, and ability to manage multiple priorities.
  • Bachelor’s degree required; paralegal certification or legal coursework is a plus.
  • I'd love to talk to you if you think this position is right up your alley, and assure prompt communication, whichever direction. If you're looking for rewarding employment and a company that puts its employees first, we'd like to work with you.
