Scale is seeking a Contract Manager to support our commercial and public sector teams. In this role, you will help scale (pun intended!) the legal department by working closely with business and legal teams to review, draft, and negotiate agreements.

- Help build and maintain internal processes, resources, and tools to help scale the legal function.
Ideally you'd have:
- Experience with a wide array of legal documents and contractual agreements, including NDAs, vendor agreements, and other commercial contracts
- Experience working with contract lifecycle management tools such as Ironclad.
- 5+ years of experience as a contracts manager, paralegal, or similar experience
- A roll-up your sleeves attitude to tackle projects large and small and a collaborative, low-ego approach to collaborating across the organization
Nice to haves:
- Strong background working with SaaS or other technology companies
- Experience leading cross-functional projects from conception to launch
- A track record of taking initiative and being resourceful to accomplish ambitious goals
- Effective organizational skills and and ability to juggle many competing priorities
