As one of the fastest growing start-up companies in the nation, we’re focused on finding the best talent and building the best team to continue accelerating our rapid growth to keep up with our demand.
AlertMedia is seeking a business-minded attorney (Sr. Commercial Counsel) with a solid understanding of technology contracts and experience in managing and negotiating a high volume of commercial transactions ranging from our SMB customers to Fortune 100 global enterprises. You will help AlertMedia continue its growth and success, with a focus on contracting for customers, vendors, and strategic partnerships. You will be the lead attorney working on a variety of innovative legal issues across the entire company. You will be required to leverage your expertise, good judgement, and strong business sense to help us grow, while assessing and mitigating legal risk.
Who you are:
You are relentlessly stakeholder-focused to ensure timing expectations are met. You are risk aware in protecting the business legally but not risk adverse to a fault. You can balance being very detail-oriented with being able to see the big picture. You are comfortable staying on top of fast-moving information and able to respond at a moment’s notice, and you bring a sense of urgency to everything you do. You see yourself as a team player and consultant working closely with internal and external stakeholders to drive negotiations to completeness.
What you get to do every day:
- Lead Commercial Negotiations: Own and manage the end-to-end negotiation process for a high volume of complex commercial contracts across all customer segments—from SMBs to Fortune 100 enterprises—including Master Service Agreements, SaaS agreements, data privacy terms, and strategic partnership contracts. Act as the primary point of contact for deal-related legal matters.
- Contract Drafting and Review: Review, draft, and revise a wide variety of commercial agreements, ensuring alignment with AlertMedia’s risk profile, legal requirements, and business objectives. Propose creative, practical solutions during negotiations that balance legal protections with business enablement.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Sales, Finance, Deal Desk, Procurement, Executive leadership and other members of the legal department to align contract terms with strategic priorities. Influence deal strategy and ensure smooth execution by proactively managing internal stakeholder expectations.
- Stakeholder Support and Enablement: Provide timely, clear, and actionable legal guidance to the Sales and Customer Success teams during deal cycles. Train and mentor internal stakeholders on legal and negotiation best practices to improve contract turnaround times.
- Operational Excellence in Contracting: Contribute to the development, implementation, and improvement of contracting workflows, contract lifecycle management (CLM) tools, and negotiation playbooks. Ensure accurate documentation and tracking of contractual terms and risk exposure.
