Boeing, the world's leading aerospace company, is seeking an Experienced Contracts Paralegal to support commercial contracting within the Indirect Supply Chain Law team, predominantly relating to internal procurements of goods and services utilized by various Boeing businesses. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience reviewing and revising supplier contracts, including purchase agreements, services agreements, SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS agreements, and nondisclosure agreements. Litigation experience is not necessary for this position.

Candidates will be expected to: handle a very large volume of supplier agreements, perform work with limited direction, work directly with clients to gather and analyze information to identify issues and risks, recommend possible solutions or mitigations, and support and participate in contract negotiations. Candidate should have a solid understanding of the procedures and processes involved in contract management as they relate to legal matters concerning supplier contracts.

The successful candidate must have the ability to identify issues and risks that may exceed the scope of authority of the Paralegal, and the judgment to determine when to escalate to the Attorney responsible. The successful candidate will be an organized self-starter who is adept at adapting and executing in a fast-paced and sometimes ambiguous environment.

  • Communicate understandable strategic advice and guidance to internal Boeing procurement teams and business clients of all levels regarding business and legal issues and risks.

  • When escalating contractual issues or risks to Attorneys, provide suitable background on the transaction, concise summaries of the issues and risks, and suggested mitigation strategies.

  • Draft letters, memoranda and other written communications while maintaining and protecting confidentiality, privilege, sensitivity, and/or security of all oral and written communications (and apply legends and use encryption for that purpose when needed).

  • Administer and maintain Law Department projects, processes, policies, procedures, and practices.

  • The position will require some responsibilities for team or department-oriented tasks, projects, and activities, including developing and delivering, with assistance of Attorneys, legal-training programs and materials to various internal client groups.

  • The position may on occasion require research of law, cases, and procedures utilizing specialized software (e.g.,Lexis/Nexis, CourtLink, WestLaw, Pacer), the Internet, and other applications, analyzing the results of research, and drafting legal memoranda assessing, among other things, the merits and respective risks and opportunities with different approaches for Attorney review.

  • Occasional domestic travel may be required.
