Commercial Contracts Paralegal
Full-time | In-house Legal Team
A global digital platform is looking for a Commercial Contracts Paralegal to support its in-house legal function during a period of continued growth.
This role suits someone who enjoys being at the centre of how commercial work flows through a business. You will take ownership of contract administration, keep systems running smoothly, and make life easier for legal and non-legal stakeholders alike.
The opportunity:
You will be part of a lean, collaborative legal team supporting a fast-moving international business. The role is operational by design and will appeal to someone who likes building order, improving processes, and being trusted to run things independently once they are set up.
You will work closely with Legal, Finance, and commercial teams across multiple jurisdictions and time zones.
What you will be doing:
* Acting as the primary point of coordination for commercial contracts across the business
* Managing the contract lifecycle from intake through execution, filing, and renewal
* Maintaining and owning contract systems, including renewal tracking and reporting
* Supporting internal approval workflows and ensuring contracts move efficiently between teams
* Preparing and managing standard form agreements such as NDAs, sponsorship arrangements, and recurring SaaS renewals
* Reviewing contracts for key commercial terms and flagging inconsistencies or risks for legal review
* Helping improve templates, internal guidance, and contract processes over time
What we are looking for:
* At least three years’ experience working with commercial contracts in a paralegal or similar role
* Strong experience using contract management tools and e-signature platforms, alongside everyday productivity tools
* Highly organised, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing a high volume of work
* Confident extracting and tracking key contract terms such as termination rights, notice periods, and liability provisions
* Able to work with minimal supervision once processes are clear
* Practical, adaptable, and comfortable operating in a fast-changing environment
Nice to have:
* Previous in-house experience, particularly in a technology or high-growth business
* Familiarity with media, sponsorship, licensing, or similar commercial agreements
