Ability to adapt as requirements shift, especially around data privacy, information security and third-party risk expectations.

Preferred experience

Familiarity with any of the following agreement types: fund administration and accounting services, loan servicing or agency services, market and reference data licensing, order management and portfolio systems, or professional services and staff augmentation.

Familiarity with software licensing and subscription models, including seat-based, enterprise, tiered and consumption-based pricing, and the entitlement and redistribution terms that come with market data agreements.

Exposure to regulatory and third-party risk requirements relevant to financial services, including outsourcing and operational resilience expectations.

Experience contracting with offshore or nearshore service providers.

Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in business, legal studies or a related field, or equivalent work experience.

5 to 7 years of relevant experience in contracts, procurement or legal, specifically including commercial contract terms and third-party service agreements.
