London, Greater London, United Kingdom Encord Full time

At Encord, we are committed to building the AI infrastructure of the future. Data quality is a significant challenge facing AI companies today. In fact, the success of any AI application depends on the quality of the model's training data — and for 95% of teams, this essential step is both the most costly and time-consuming in getting their product to market.

We experienced firsthand the lack of tools for preparing quality training data, which hindered the progress of building AI for many teams. As a Senior Contract Negotiator, your main responsibilities will include drafting, negotiating, and finalizing various legal agreements with a quick turnaround involving multiple stakeholders. This role demands a proactive individual with prior experience in handling commercial contracts and general compliance matters, preferably with a background working with SaaS or other technology companies.

Key Responsibilities:
  1. Trusted Business Partner: You will be a trusted business partner and respond thoughtfully to requests from the Encord team and customers regarding company policies, legal issues, and risk tolerance.
  2. Contract Evaluation: You will thoroughly evaluate the risks, legal obligations, and commitments associated with contractual agreements.
  3. Commercial Risk Management: You will review contract performance, assess commercial risks, and ensure appropriate steps are taken to manage such risks.
  4. Process Improvement: You will identify opportunities to improve processes, standardize contract templates, and automate contract management workflows to boost efficiency and effectiveness.

What We Offer:

  1. A competitive salary of around $120,000 per year, plus commission and equity in a hyper-growth business.
  2. A strong in-person culture: most of our team is in the office 3+ days a week.
  3. 25 days annual leave a year, plus public holidays.
  4. Monthly socials and bi-annual off-sites.
