Job Description

Contract Administrator

Southgate, CA | Full-Time | On-Site

Why this role

Join a fast-moving Legal team where you’ll own projects end to end, lead negotiations, and build the processes that keep the business humming. You’ll work closely with a brilliant attorney, making this a uniquely dynamic opportunity for a Contract Administrator who thrives on autonomy and problem-solving.

What you’ll do

  • Project manage the contract lifecycle from intake to execution : scope requirements, set timelines, run stakeholder updates, clear blockers, and drive to on-time completion.
  • Lead contract negotiations in partnership with the Chief Legal Officer / attorney : draft and redline, propose fallback positions, align on playbooks, and close favorable terms.
  • Build and improve processes : create intake forms, SOPs, templates, playbooks, RACI / SLAs, and reporting that scale the department’s effectiveness.
  • Lead the implementation and optimization of contract lifecycle management by collaborating with IT and business teams to ensure successful software deployment, data integrity, and streamlined workflow automation.
  • Own the contracts database and legal intranet pages : governance, taxonomy, version control, and user enablement.
  • Create actionable dashboards & reports (renewals, expirations, obligations, cycle time, negotiation outcomes, workload).
  • Support legal responses : coordinate information gathering and document prep for subpoenas, discovery, and similar inquiries.
  • Manage cross-functional work with Procurement, Sales, Finance, Ops, and external partners / consultants.
  • Communicate crisply : run standups / check-ins, publish status updates, and brief execs on risk, path-to-green, and decisions needed.
  • Be hands-on where needed—no task too small when it moves the project forward.

You’ll thrive here if you…

  • Are self-managing : you prioritize, sequence work, and keep multiple projects moving without being chased.
  • Enjoy partnering with high-caliber experts, translating legal nuance into business action.
  • Love turning ambiguity into process and process into measurable results.

    • Required Qualifications

  • College degree required.
  • 3+ years in a Contract Administrator or closely related role (in-house legal or commercial operations).
  • Demonstrated project management capability : planning, timelines, stakeholder comms, risk / issue tracking, and delivery.
  • Proven experience drafting / reviewing / redlining contracts and supporting / leading negotiations.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects concurrently and drive them to completion with minimal supervision.
  • Strong skills in Microsoft Excel, Word, and PowerPoint; DocuSign experience preferred.
  • Clear, concise written and verbal communication and meticulous organization / time management.

    • Preferred Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree required, Juris Doctor a plus.
  • In-house paralegal experience and / or exposure to customer service or procurement environments.
  • Hands-on contract management / contract lifecycle management experience.
  • Familiarity with building templates, playbooks, SOPs, SLAs, and reporting.

    • The fine print

  • This is a full-time, direct-hire, on-site role in Southgate, CA.
