Job description:
The Senior Commercial Contracts Manager (Global) will provide our organization with strategic and operational contract support for its commercial activities. While this role will primarily focus on the foregoing activities in North America, support in other regions will also be required. This role serves as a trusted legal partner to Sales, Service, Procurement, Product, and Technology teams, managing a high volume of commercial contracts while also leading more complex, technology-driven and innovation-focused transactions. The ideal candidate brings strong independent judgment, deep experience with customer and supplier paper, and the ability to structure and negotiate sophisticated commercial, SaaS, technology, and development agreements with minimal supervision. Experience supporting an in-house legal or contracts function within an industrial equipment manufacturer or similarly complex manufacturing environment is strongly preferred. This role is open to candidates located anywhere in the U.S. and is fully remote, with occasional travel to Wood Dale, IL, as needed. While this role is ideally based in Wood Dale, IL, we are open to exceptional candidates located anywhere in the United States. Remote candidates should be available to travel to Wood Dale approximately 10–20% of the time for key meetings, team collaboration, and business needs.
