As our Contracts Specialist, you are the centralized owner of all contracts and agreements across the business.

This is not a filing or paperwork role. You are actively reviewing contracts, identifying risk, asking smart first-level questions, and knowing when something needs to be clarified or escalated. You are trusted to read between the lines, spot red flags, and help prevent problems before they hit the field, billing, or leadership team.

You will touch construction contracts, vendor agreements, supplier contracts, service agreements, and other third-party contracts that keep the business running.

Contracts Specialist – Your Job Duties

As the Contracts Specialist, you manage contracts from the moment they come in through execution, changes, and close-out. You are the go-to person for knowing where contracts stand, what they say, and what needs attention, as well as ensuring that the Company has up-to-date contracts for all current vendor agreements.

You will:

Review construction contracts, vendor agreements, supplier contracts, professional services agreements, and third-party contracts before signature, identifying any potential unusual items and questions

Read contracts line by line to identify key terms, risks, and obligations

Review scope language to confirm what is included, excluded, or unclear

Review payment terms to identify retainage, pay-when-paid clauses, billing timing, and penalties

Review indemnification, insurance, liability, warranty, and termination language for risk and alignment with company standards

Flag contract terms that do not align with how the business actually operates

Identify items that raise questions such as unrealistic timelines, one-sided risk, missing exhibits, or conflicting language

Prepare clear contract summaries that outline key terms, deadlines, and risks

Ask first-level questions and request revisions when contract language is unclear or problematic

Escalate higher-risk items to leadership or legal counsel when needed

Track contracts through signature, revisions, amendments, renewals, and expiration
