The Role

We're seeking a part-time Legal Executive (0.6 FTE) to play a key role in managing Straker's commercial contracts and supporting our global operations.

You'll be the central point of contact for contract management — ensuring agreements are well-understood, compliant, and efficiently administered — while coordinating with our external legal counsel for more complex legal advice or jurisdictional issues.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys a diverse and hands-on role, understands what makes a strong commercial agreement, and thrives in a collaborative, international environment.

What You'll Be Doing

• Contract Management & Administration
• Review and manage a wide range of commercial contracts, including sales agreements, referral agreements, and NDAs.
  
• Identify and understand the key terms, risks, and obligations in contracts — ensuring they align with company standards and commercial goals.
  
• Coordinate with our external law firm for drafting support, complex legal issues, or jurisdiction-specific advice.
  
• Administer the contract renewal process, including tracking expirations and following up with the sales team and customers to ensure timely renewals.
  
  Maintain and improve contract templates and management processes to enhance efficiency, consistency, and compliance.
  
  

Business Partnership

• Act as a trusted liaison between the legal function, external counsel, and internal teams.
  
• Provide practical guidance to colleagues on contractual terms and implications, helping them make informed business decisions.
  
• Build strong relationships across departments (Sales, Finance, Operations, and Management) to ensure seamless collaboration.
  
  

Process & Governance

• Support the continuous improvement of legal and contract management systems.
  
• Promote best practices in contract handling, documentation, and compliance.
  
  

Who We're Looking For

You're detail-oriented, commercially minded, and comfortable working with both business and legal professionals. You know what makes a good contract — what should be in it, what shouldn't — and how to keep the process running smoothly.

You'll be a great fit if you have:

• A Law Degree (admission to practice not required).
  
• Experience as a Legal Executive, Paralegal, or Contract Manager in a commercial setting.
  
• Solid understanding of contract structures, key terms, and negotiation principles.
  
• Strong communication skills and confidence liaising with both internal stakeholders and external legal advisors.
  
• Experience supporting an international business environment.
  
• A proactive, organized approach and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
  
• A positive attitude, adaptability, and a good sense of humor (we mean it).
  
  

This position has no direct reports or budget responsibilities, allowing you to focus on what you do best — delivering outstanding legal and contractual support.
