Legal Operations Specialist (Ironclad Experience)
The Position
Our client is a growing biotechnology company that is located in the Peninsula in the San Francisco Bay Area. They are seeking a Contracts Admin/Legal Operations candidate to support their growing legal team. This role will focus heavily on ownership and optimization of the company’s CLM ecosystem, including Ironclad administration, workflow/process improvement, reporting, repository management, AI-enabled contracting tools, and broader legal operations initiatives tied to commercialization and ERP integration efforts.
The ideal candidate will have strong legal operations or contracts administration experience, hands-on Ironclad expertise, and a systems-thinking mindset. The team is looking for someone who is highly detail-oriented, collaborative, low ego, proactive, and comfortable balancing both strategic process work and day-to-day operational support responsibilities.
Experience in biotech/pharma is preferred but not required. Strong experience supporting complex CLM environments and legal technology platforms is highly valued.
This project starts ASAP, is expected to last approximately 6 months with potential for extension/conversion, open to remote candidates, and if candidates are located near their Bay Area location, a hybrid work model is available. This is a long-term opportunity with the potential to convert. The expected hours are 20-30 per week.
The hourly rate for this assignment is expected to be between $60 and $65. This range is an estimate; an employee’s compensation will be based on the employee’s qualifications, skillset, and relevant experience, specific client needs, project requirements, and other considerations permitted by law.
