Role Overview

We are looking for a Contracts Manager to join our legal team to establish our contracts manager and legal operations functions.

• You will interface with cross-functional teams including our deal operations and go-to-market teams to ensure fast and efficient execution of agreements with customers.
• You will also focus on the efficient operation of the commercial team (including its contracts management system) and Harvey’s legal department.

What You’ll Do

Generative AI has the power to greatly change the world and directly impact how things get done.  Harvey is at the forefront of this change, and our mission is to make generative AI actionable and useful for our customers.  This is a fast moving environment (we are a start-up!) that is serving some of the world’s most renowned law firms and professional service organizations.  And this role will put you in the center of all of this.

More specifically, you will:

• Draft, review, and negotiate Order Forms, Master Service Agreements, NDAs, and procurement-related agreements
• Maintain and expand our contacts management system and establish our Legal Operations function
• Provide training and develop resources in support of our sales and other cross-functional teams

We are a small, but growing company, and one of the best things about working in such an environment is that there is lots of opportunity to pick up other aspects of the legal work that supports our company.  While the principal job will be as described above, there will be ample opportunities to broaden your wheelhouse here at Harvey!

This role is based in New York, N.Y. or San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week.

What You Have

• Bachelors degree
• 3+ years of law firm and/or in-house experience
• Experienced applicants, including with management experience, are welcome, as there may be an opportunity to build out the Contracts Manager and Legal Operations functions over time
• Transactional background, including with SaaS, technology, and/or IP licensing commercial agreements, and/or M&A transactions
• Experience with contracts management systems and related systems (such as or similar to Ironclad, Lexion, Zip and Docusign)
• Ninja-like project management skills
• Management, legal operations and AI experience welcomed but not required
• Ability to think creatively, function independently and work proactively in a fast-paced environment
• Team-focused and collaborative work style; willingness to build expertise and solve new challenges in an evolving practice
• Hyper-responsive and service-oriented attitude, and a love for solving hard problems with a small tight-knit team
