Job Description

A mid-sized engineering and consulting firm focused on environmental infrastructure is looking for a Contracts Analyst to support its legal and project delivery teams. This role involves in-depth contract evaluation, risk assessment, and collaboration with technical staff to ensure agreements are both legally sound and operationally practical.

We're seeking someone who thrives in a technical, compliance-driven environment-ideally with experience in industries like engineering, construction, utilities, or public infrastructure. The right candidate will be proactive, detail-oriented, and capable of translating complex contract language into actionable insights.

This is a strategic position-not a document processing role. You'll be expected to engage critically with contract terms, flag potential issues, and propose meaningful revisions.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Analyze contracts and related documents for legal risk, clarity, and alignment with internal standards and applicable regulations
  • Draft and revise contract language, offering clear and constructive feedback
  • Work closely with engineers and project leads to understand project requirements and reflect them accurately in agreements
  • Participate in negotiations with external partners, clients, and subcontractors
  • Contribute to the development and refinement of internal templates and specifications
  • Prepare legal documents such as NDAs, teaming agreements, and amendments
  • Conduct research on relevant laws and regulations (e.g., labor codes, licensing rules, procurement laws)
  • Help maintain compliance with licensing and registration requirements across multiple jurisdictions
  • Assist in drafting technical specifications and engineering-related contract language

Ideal Background:

  • Minimum 3 years of experience in contract review and negotiation, preferably in technical or regulated sectors
  • Familiarity with contracts related to construction, engineering, or professional services
  • Strong ability to identify problematic terms and suggest improvements
  • Experience working with technical teams and bridging legal and operational language
  • Excellent writing and editing skills, with a professional and consistent tone
  • Ability to interpret and apply relevant laws and codes
  • Solid research and documentation skills; experience with legal research platforms is a plus
