The role is centered on document coordination, records organization, deadline tracking, and internal communication rather than legal analysis or contract negotiation. Responsibilities: • Keep contract logs and legal matter tracking tools current so the team has accurate status visibility. • Arrange and maintain legal documents, records, and filing systems in an orderly and accessible manner. • Facilitate the circulation of agreements for review, approval, and signature completion. • Monitor key dates such as expirations, renewal milestones, and pending action items, and follow up as needed. • Provide administrative support for legal billing activities, including invoice handling and tracking. • Respond to internal requests for updates by sharing contract progress and identifying outstanding items. • Assist the legal team with day-to-day administrative tasks that help maintain smooth departmental operations.
