About The Position

Built's legal function sits at the center of every deal, partnership, and vendor relationship the company runs, and it moves fast. As Contract Manager, you'll be the operational backbone of Built's commercial contracting: negotiating SaaS agreements, MSAs, NDAs, and vendor contracts, staying ahead of product and pricing changes before they become contract problems, and navigating the specific, complex procurement requirements of large financial institutions. This is a high-ownership role for someone who redlines confidently, inserts themselves into business conversations proactively, and genuinely enjoys the place where legal precision meets commercial speed. You'll work directly with our Head of Legal, Risk & Compliance and have real ownership over a meaningful portion of Built's contract portfolio from day one.

Confidence negotiating a broad range of commercial contracts well beyond NDAs: SaaS agreements, vendor contracts, MSAs

Strong organizational instincts; able to manage high volume and competing deadlines without things slipping
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills; able to engage effectively across all levels of the business
