What You'll Do

Set Lambda's contracting and supply chain standards — SOPs, playbooks, approval matrix, delegation of authority, master supply, general contractor, and design agreement templates, clause library, and commercial negotiation frameworks

Lead master agreements and their commercial terms — pricing structures, payment terms, capacity reservations, warranties, liquidated damages, and performance security — in alignment with category managers, who own the sourcing strategy and supplier relationships

Lead negotiation of terms and conditions — liability caps, indemnities, insurance, change, suspension, and termination — and assess and allocate commercial risk on every agreement

Serve as the direct liaison to Legal and outside counsel — framing issues, coordinating reviews, and driving agreements to execution

Be the go-to expert for interpreting terms and conditions across Lambda's contract portfolio, advising Construction, Sourcing, Finance, and project teams on rights, obligations, and remedies

Own claims, and disputes across construction and equipment contracts — evaluate entitlement and schedule and cost impact, negotiate resolution, and escalate with Legal and outside counsel when needed

Own contract obligation tracking — milestones, notices, warranties, capacity commitments, LDs, and renewal dates — and keep contract data and records current

Own supplier onboarding — vetting, sanctions and denied-party screening, insurance and certification requirements, tariffs, and import and export controls

Keep the supply chain and contracts function audit-ready — documented controls, approval evidence, contract records, and compliance with internal policy and external requirements

Set dashboard and reporting standards for contracts, spend, supplier, and compliance data, and deliver regular reporting to leadership

Roll out procurement standards and training at every site so project and site teams follow consistent processes for purchasing, approvals, and contract use

Secure approvals for deviations from Lambda's standards, and prepare clear negotiation summaries and recommendations for executives

Continuously improve contracting and procurement efficiency through lessons learned, standardization, and contract lifecycle management and procurement tools
