Commercial Contract Manager at RecruitMyMom

Job Description

• This is a remote position.
• Operating at the operational core of a scaling digital media agency, this full-time remote contract role requires full commitment to a 40-hour work week to insulate an exponential pipeline of brand-sponsored agreements from commercial risk. Acting as the primary transactional safeguard for international content creators, the successful candidate will review incoming media sponsorship agreements, manage active redlines, and coordinate rapid signature cycles. This position offers an agile legal specialist or seasoned paralegal the opportunity to navigate high-volume contract lifecycles within the global creator economy under minimal executive oversight. Operating on United States business hours (4pm to 12.30pm SA time) 

Key Responsibilities

• Contract Review & Verification: Systematically analyse incoming brand-side sponsorship contracts, identifying operational risk parameters, structural gaps, and terms requiring direct amendment.
• Agreement Architecture: Draft protective creator-side agreements utilising established agency templates, actively iterating on these internal SOPs to build a more efficient legal administration pipeline.
• Redline Negotiations: Coordinate and resolve redline revisions directly with corporate brand legal teams and talent managers, protecting creator asset usage and performance liabilities.
• Data & Pipeline Visualization: Maintain absolute real-time record accuracy within the Airtable deal pipeline, safeguarding moving components against omission.
• Shared Inbox Orchestration: Manage a high-volume, collaborative email terminal, adhering strictly to a 24-hour turnaround parameter for all newly drafted documentation and incoming comments.
• Strategic Risk Escalation: Filter incoming legal friction points, executing template-driven negotiations independently while smoothly escalating novel or complex legal exposures directly to the Chief Executive Officer.

Requirements

• Proven Experience: Demonstrable history of reviewing, redlining, and drafting commercial agreements (managing a high volume of 40+ contracts per month is highly advantageous).
• Legal Foundational Training: Completed paralegal accreditation, formal legal studies, or equivalent hands-on corporate contract management experience (no formal law degree or admission is required).
• Linguistic Mastery: Elite written English capabilities with the capacity to compose precise redline commentary and highly polished, professional executive correspondence.
• Systems Autonomy: High technical aptitude with a proven capacity to master new cloud-based software platforms and productivity tools without extensive manual onboarding.

Preferred Qualifications

• Direct experience operating within an advertising agency, digital media house, or influencer marketing firm.
• Practical familiarity with influencer-specific intellectual property rights, content usage structures, or talent management contracts.
• Background in commercial negotiation or conflict mediation.

Required Software Skills

• Airtable (Pipeline database management)
• PandaDoc (Digital document creation and electronic signature workflows)
• Asana & Notion (Project tracking and internal knowledge bases)
• Missive (Shared inbox collaboration tool)
• Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Drive)
