• Partner with internal stakeholders to identify and remediate data handling risks; encourage privacy-by-design practices.

Vendor & Procurement Contracting

• Draft, review, and negotiate vendor, procurement, and operations agreements (IT/SaaS, professional services, logistics/delivery, marketing vendors, clinical vendors), including MSAs, SOWs, order forms, renewals, and amendments, including vendors that support pharmacy operations, PBM services, patient support, data exchange, and related healthcare services.

• Partner with Procurement, Finance, Security/IT, Privacy, and Compliance on intake, diligence, and approvals (e.g., security questionnaires, BAAs/DPAs, SOC 2/ISO documents, COIs).

• Negotiate and document SLAs, support/uptime, data handling/retention, audit rights, business continuity, termination/transition assistance, and fee/charge guardrails.

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Legal Ops

• Provide timely, business-oriented legal advice to Commercial, Partnerships, and Operations teams.

• Contribute to process improvements (e.g., workflow design, contract lifecycle management, playbook refinements, dashboards) that scale the legal function.

• Support communications and marketing review for external messaging, disclosures, and public statements.

Compliance & Risk Support

• Collaborate with Compliance on training materials, audits, and corrective actions.

• Support Compliance with PBM audits by researching and advising on state pharmacy and PBM laws and reviewing PBM contractual requirements. 

• Assist with risk assessments, internal inquiries, and remediation planning as needed.

• Demonstrated experience drafting and negotiating commercial and technology agreements.

• Experience with vendor/procurement contracting and third‑party risk management (e.g., SaaS/IT, SOWs, SLAs, security addenda, BAAs/DPAs).

• Excellent communication, judgment, and organizational skills with a practical, business-minded approach.

• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, evolving organization and manage multiple priorities effectively.

Preferred Qualifications

•  Experience in pharmacy or PBM-related commercial/regulatory work, such as PBM network participation, payer/client contracting, prescription drug benefit administration, pharmacy services arrangements, specialty pharmacy, mail-order pharmacy, manufacturer/rebate-related arrangements, or state PBM laws. 

• Exposure to data privacy, cybersecurity, and breach response.

• Familiarity with regulatory frameworks applicable to telehealth, diagnostics, and clinical operations.

• Experience with contract lifecycle management (CLM) and legal operations tooling.
