Job Description
JOB DETAILS
- A Bachelor’s degree (business, English, philosophy, political science, pre-law, or any field that sharpened how you think and write) or any field that demonstrates rigor in thinking and writing.
- Demonstrated attention to detail, from coursework, internships, part-time work, or projects.
- Strong written and verbal English communication skills.
- A problem-solving mindset—ability to identify issues and think about solutions.
- Intellectual curiosity; willingness to learn how businesses, systems, and rules work; careful reading and asking why.
- Comfort with technology and a willingness to learn new platforms quickly; exposure to Salesforce, Ironclad, or other business tools is a bonus, but not required.
- Learn to Draft and Refine: with guidance and structured training, prepare, send, and help negotiate contracts, updating language for clarity and relevance using Salesforce, Ironclad and AI.
- Get the Quote Right: verify that quotes accurately reflect what the customer is buying so customers receive the right entitlements, Services teams know what to deliver, and Billing and Finance have clean information to invoice and report.
- Learn Our Products: build working knowledge of Percona’s expert consulting, support tiers, and managed services across MySQL, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, and MariaDB; by end of first year understand offerings well enough to spot when something on a quote or contract doesn’t look right.
- Collaborate and Problem-Solve: partner with internal teams and customers, work closely with Senior Director of Contract Operations and Contracts Business Partner for mentorship through increasingly complex deals.
- Dig Into the Details: review red-lined agreements, spot issues, and propose solutions; understand why clauses matter and potential implications.
- Support the Company’s Work: help respond to RFPs, vendor forms, questionnaires, and document requests, coordinating with Finance and Compliance to keep things moving.
- Communicate Clearly: explain terms and make recommendations to internal stakeholders (Sales, Customer Success, managed services, Finance) and external partners (Customers, Partners); clear writing and thoughtful questions matter more than years of experience.
- Global Team Support: cover time-sensitive requests across time zones during teammate absences or busy periods; flexible to work a schedule with at least four hours of overlap with U.S. Eastern Time.
- Grow Into Deals Desk: over time, trained to support Sales, Finance, Legal, Customer Success, and Services teams as they move complex deals from quote to close; progress toward becoming a trusted advisor on deal structure, pricing, and process.
- Internship, co-op, or project experience in legal, paralegal, contracts, deals desk, operations, finance, accounting, or any role requiring meticulous review of documents.
- Coursework or independent reading in contracts, business law, or commercial transactions.
- Examples of process improvement; a time you took something messy and made it cleaner, even outside a work context.
- Experience working independently or in a remote setting.
- Strong interpersonal skills and good judgment in ambiguous situations.
