Assist with deal desk and contract review activities. Support our sales team with deal and contract structuring, RFI / RFP / Proposals, contract reviews (e.g., master agreements, services schedules, subcontractor agreements, technology license agreements, confidentiality agreements and teaming agreements), drafting custom provisions, and negotiations - all related to complex professional services heavily centered on technology.

Intersect with various functions including sales, legal, finance, and delivery to act as a strategic advisor to help optimize deal flow along with sales and contracting cycles, working most closely with the Business and legal.

Provide authoritative guidance to align business arrangements with Firm policies and risk tolerances.

Drive initiatives related to risk and quality for the Operate engagement model, including developing best practices for :

  • Systematic risk evaluation and mitigation approaches (e.g., contractual and operational)
  • Reusable artifacts (e.g., playbooks, templates, checklists) for Risk Managers and practitioners to use to facilitate optimal risk navigation, contracting, and delivery outcomes
  • Strategy and guidance around complex hybrid services engagements with third party technologies and subcontractors involved
  • Identification and facilitation of resolution of Independence issues
  • Commercial / financial issues and implications associated with certain Operate constructs (e.g., complex invoicing methodologies; investments, rebates, and "sticky deal constructs")
  • Mitigate delivery quality risks during proposal development, during contracting, at engagement startup, and throughout service delivery for Operate engagements.
  • Ongoing and Post-Execution Risk Management and Contracting Support

    Assist with ongoing contracting, risk management, and mitigation support for ongoing contracting requirements - SOWs, Change Orders, amendments, and renewals.

    Facilitate continued compliance with contractually required policies and processes, non-standard obligations and restrictions, and with the Firm's internal policies.

    Provide coaching, guidance, and mitigation suggestions through the engagement lifecycle to Business leaders on critical risk and quality issues.

    Knowledge Management and Training Support

    Drive creation of reusable artifacts and templates, including checklists, modular contract language, and recommended internal processes related to Operate-specific services.

    Support strategic initiatives pertaining to development / updating of processes, tools, and templates to improve overall risk management and contracting practices and to help drive adoption of such processes, tools, and templates.

    A successful candidate will possess these skills :

  • Experience in writing and reviewing scope of work documents, with a focus on incorporating actionable and measurable guidance to address specific risks around delivery execution
