[Hiring] Senior Contract Manager @Foundation

Role Description

Are you the kind of person who can walk into a business with no documented contract process and build one from scratch, rather than waiting to be handed a playbook? Do you get energy from making dense legal terms usable for non-legal teams, instead of just filing them away? Are you comfortable owning both sides of a negotiation – redlining what a client sends you and reviewing what a vendor sends us – in the same week?

If this sounds like you, keep reading. If not, that's okay – this role is not a fit, and that clarity is intentional.

Contract management at Foundation has been running on multiple people’s tribal knowledge rather than a documented process, and it doesn't scale as our enterprise book (including a recent >$1M account expansion) grows. This role takes full ownership of all contract lifecycles end to end – drafting, negotiating, and reviewing every contract scenario we handle, from new client agreements to vendor and independent contractor agreements – so it's no longer split across whoever has bandwidth that week.

This person unlocks the next phase of our enterprise growth without adding legal risk or bottlenecking through one overloaded person.

Qualifications

• 6+ years in contract management, paralegal, or contracts-counsel work, ideally within B2B SaaS, marketing/agency, or professional services
• Demonstrated experience independently drafting and negotiating MSAs, SOWs, vendor contracts, and change orders – not just reviewing what others draft
• Strong working fluency in US and Canadian contract law fundamentals (indemnification, liability caps, IP/usage rights, data privacy basics)
• Familiarity with data privacy frameworks relevant to our client base (e.g. GDPR, PIPEDA, CCPA)
• Proven track record of building a contract management function, workflow, or Customer Lifecycle Management tooling from scratch, not just operating inside an existing one
• Practical fluency with DocuSign, PandaDoc, ClickUp, and at least one AI-assisted knowledge or CLM tool
• Demonstrated ability to work independently in a remote, high-volume role, prioritizing across multiple concurrent contract types without close supervision

Requirements

• Takes ownership of ambiguous, undocumented processes and turns them into a working system
• Is comfortable owning drafting and negotiation directly, not just reviewing what others produce
• Has the judgment to know when to resolve a redline directly and when it needs escalation to counsel
• Communicates contract terms clearly to non-legal stakeholders (sales, AMs, project coordinators)
• Is fluent in modern contract tooling (DocuSign, PandaDoc, ClickUp, AI-assisted knowledge systems) and enjoys configuring it, not just using it
• Adapts well to Foundation's fast-paced, fully remote working rhythm

Benefits

• Base pay range: $60,000 – $110,000 CAD / year (depending on experience & location)
• OTE: $75,000 - $138,000 CAD / year (Eligible for Company Profit Share, Team/Dept Performance Bonus and Individual Performance Bonus)
• Final compensation is determined by experience, role level, and location. We use a role × level × location framework.
• We pay intentionally, hire globally, and reward impact.
