  • Internal Business Support: Partner closely with Sales, Customer Success, Product, and Business Development teams to translate business needs into clear contract terms, answer contract-related queries, and ensure compliance with internal risk boundaries.

If qualified by paralegal background and interested, assist with entity management, corporate maintenance, subsidiary filings, and routine corporate/tax administration matters.
