Commercial Counsel (SaaS / FinTech)
We are assisting our client in hiring for a Commercial Counsel. Our client provides cloud-based collection software solutions for banks, credit unions, and fintechs to collect and manage their portfolios.
Specifically, they provide the technology and data necessary to increase collections efficiency, provide a digital consumer experience, reduce staff costs, anticipate delinquencies, and provide insight into future credit decisions.
This is a new role, and its purpose is to take the contracts desk off the CFO's plate and own it end-to-end. This is a high-ownership, detail-intensive role for an early-career attorney who loves working through contracts, not just routing them.
The majority of the work is commercial contracts: reviewing, redlining, and negotiating MSAs, order forms, and NDAs against our approved templates and playbooks.
You will also handle vendor contracts and maintain the data privacy and Data Processing Agreement (DPA) language that lives inside those agreements.
You'll be part of the CFO's team, which means you will see across commercial, vendor, and operational agreements. You will work directly with the CFO, Sales, and Customer Loyalty, and collaborate closely with People & Culture and the SVP of Enterprise Risk, both of whom sit in the same organization.
