Contracts Counsel

Description

• You will provide support for the documentation involved in making commercial offers and RFP responses.
• In collaboration with Sales and Commercial Finance Management, you will help negotiate equipment sale agreements, EPC contracts, long-term services agreements, software agreements (SaaS), procurement agreements, and a variety of other commercial arrangements.
• You will help to create, manage and update the company’s contract templates and provide input to risk profiles.
• You will assist in the handover of projects from the contracting team to the implementation team, by properly assembling, archiving and summarizing the documents.
• You will have a lead role in drafting the aforementioned contracts, with assistance from the commercial, technical and other legal personnel involved in each project.

Requirements

• You preferably bring experience in industrial equipment, construction or utility projects. If your experience comes from the renewable energy or energy storage sector including any experience with EPC contracts, we might think you are very fancy indeed. However, we care more about your ninja-like contracting skills than what industry or position you come from.
• You have excellent judgment, both in business and interpersonal matters, except you like lawyers. People sometimes tell you “Wow, I didn’t know lawyers could be cool.”
• You exude strong interpersonal skills, flexibility and a highly self-motivated work style. In a room full of industrial-grade rock stars, you’ll blend in like a chameleon.
• Are licensed to practice law and eligible to legally work in the location where you live.
• You have a minimum of 5 years (preferably 7+ years) experience drafting complex commercial contracts. You eat contracts for breakfast and can write them in your sleep.
• You have a minimum of 5 years (preferably 7+ years) experience as a front-line negotiator for complex commercial transactions. A meaningful of amount of that experience has involved sitting “first chair” in contract negotiations. You enjoy boring your family and friends with your vast knowledge of payment terms, logistics, warranty clauses and liability limitations.
