Corporate Attorney (Contract)

Title: Temporary Corporate Counsel (Contract - Leave Coverage)

Assignment Summary: Our client is seeking an experienced contract/interim attorney to provide temporary coverage for their Corporate Counsel role while the incumbent is on approved leave. This is a defined-term engagement with an intentionally narrowed scope, focused on day-to-day contract review and lower-risk dispute matters, allowing the placement to ramp quickly without deep institutional handoff on strategic or high-stakes items. The interim counsel will report to the General Counsel and coordinate closely with the legal team on active matters and open files.

Primary Responsibilities: Review, redline, and negotiate routine commercial contracts, including vendor, customer, and partnership agreements. Respond to and help resolve low-risk legal disputes and claims (e.g., routine client and vendor disputes, minor tenant complaints, standard response letters) in coordination with the General Counsel. Maintain continuity on in-flight contract matters and disputes handed off at the start of the assignment. Flag and escalate any higher-risk, high-value, or novel matters to the General Counsel or outside counsel rather than handling independently. Other related duties as assigned, consistent with the scope and duration of a temporary assignment.

Qualifications: Juris Doctor from an accredited law school; active bar membership in good standing.3+ years of related legal experience, including in-house and/or corporate practice; contract review and negotiation experience required. Experience handling routine dispute response, demand letters, or low-risk claims. Landlord/tenant and proptech industry experience strongly preferred but not required. Able to work independently with minimal ramp-up time and manage a moderate, steady caseload. Strong contract-drafting and redlining skills; comfortable using standard contract management tools. Clear, professional written and verbal communication; comfortable flagging issues proactively to the General Counsel. Available for the full assignment window; availability for occasional handoff calls prior to the leave start date is a plus. Jobot is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
