You will also manage the onboarding of new suppliers, ensuring due diligence, terms of trading and compliance checks are completed consistently across the business.

Key Responsibilities:
Contract Administration

- Check that all contract fields are completed correctly, including accurate language, spelling and grammar
- Sense-check any special or non-standard terms included in a contract
- Liaise with the Sales and Creative teams to resolve any defects or missing information
- Forward contracts containing amended or special terms to Legal for review
- Ensure that the trading terms are agreed in writing with the trading partner before committing to Docusign for signature

- Download completed contracts from DocuSign and upload them to the central contract hub
- Maintain a diary of Master Services Agreement (MSA) expiry dates and flag upcoming renewals
- Maintain record of special terms/contract variations agreed with clients and ensure these are applied to all contracts for the relevant client
