• Evaluate proposed terms to identify legal, commercial, and operational exposure, and communicate key risks along with practical mitigation options.
• Manage contracting activity across assigned workstreams, setting priorities based on business needs, stakeholder input, and timing requirements.
• Analyze contract-related information and collaborate with internal partners to support the selection, onboarding, and execution of counterparty agreements.
• Develop commercial language that aligns with stakeholder expectations while strengthening protection in external business relationships.
• Monitor contract progress and provide regular status updates, issue tracking, and reporting to business partners and leadership.
• Support compliance with established contracting policies, procedures, and methods throughout the agreement lifecycle.
• Contribute to the improvement of standardized templates, workflows, and documentation practices to increase consistency and efficiency.
• Maintain accurate records and tracking details for active engagements to help ensure timely delivery and effective team communication.

Qualifications:

• Experience negotiating and executing contracts in support of business development, ideally within renewable energy, oil and gas, or a closely related industry.
• Demonstrated ability to draft, redline, and review contract terms with minimal supervision.
• Strong understanding of commercial and contractual risk assessment, including the ability to recommend mitigation strategies.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to work effectively across stakeholders, legal teams, and external counterparties.
• Proven organizational and time-management skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
