Thousand Oaks, CA · Biotech/PharmaceuticalJob Title: CLM Specialist/Business Analyst, Biopharma Law - Remote (JP10220)
Location: Thousand Oaks, CA (Remote)
Business Unit: Law - Development & Regulatory
Employment Type: Contract
Duration: 14 months with likely extensions
Job posting date: 5/5/2022
3 Key Consulting is hiring CLM (Contract Lifecycle Management) Specialist/Business Analyst for a consulting engagement with our direct client, a leading global bio-pharmaceutical company.
Job Summary and Scope:
The Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) project is one of four workstreams under the larger Evolving Financial Management Program. The CLM project will establish a new contract generation through contract storage solution for procurement agreements with capabilities for Global Strategic Sourcing (GSS) to track Obligation and Contract Compliance Management for these agreements. Consideration is also being given to moving Enterprise non-clinical Confidential Disclosure Agreement (CDA) request, generation, workflow, and eSignature to this solution. The decision to move CDAs to the new solution will be based on the success of the initial phase of the CLM effort and the viability of the overall solution.
The CLM solution will also provide an opportunity to establish a new contract negotiation workflow that will allow interaction between Law, GSS (Global Strategic Sourcing) and the external party for contract negotiations. This will include the integration of existing fall back language in Law’s Contract Negotiation guide and a contract review capability to identify areas of interest between the baseline and redlined version of the negotiated contracts. The contract review capability is also being evaluated for use of comparing non-procurement (e.g., Clinical) agreement baseline templates to redlined versions of contracts from suppliers with the intent to enable a more automated review of terms in negotiated agreements for other Law contracting teams.
We are seeking a Senior Associate - Law Operations / Business Analyst who will serve as a key resource in helping transition from our Client’s existing contract generation solution to the new CLM solution. They will work closely with the Law Operations team, Law stakeholders, Information Systems and CLM team to help design, implement and test the new CLM solution specifically related to the Contract Generation and Negotiation capabilities. They will help to deliver these capabilities in a manner that is scalable, secure, and aligns to best practices.
Tasks/Deliverables: The following is a list of tasks and deliverables this role will be responsible for conducting and delivering during this engagement. This list is meant to serve as guidance for the role but additional tasks may be asked of the role as the project matures:
NOT familiar with Contract Lifecycle Management solutions
NO experience with Contract Generation capabilities within CLMs
NOT familiar with basic software logic and/or coding
Interview Process:
Up to 4 Interviews with Law Operations and IS team members
