Contract Framework

We work closely with Product and GTM team’s leadership to resolve business objectives and understand day-to-day challenges in working toward those goals while relaying this information to the Commercial Legal team. We evaluate all the information currently or potentially available, and align with various partners before moving forward with contract drafting and process improvement. We are half project manager, keeping contract framework and pricelist development/refinement on track; we are half analyst, discerning signal from noise to make sound recommendations on sophisticated legal and operational considerations. In sum, when you join the team, you are far more than a day-to-day project manager - you ensure efficient contracting operations and prepare OA for continued success

In addition, a keen analytical focus will be required to provide insight to various partners across OA and Oracle as to the state of the OA contracting work in progress, as well as make recommendations for improvements to the processes supporting the business. Collaborating closely with other teams, identifying key points and measuring activity will be key success metrics.
