In addition to handling clients’ and internal queries, the Contracting Unit oversees and advises on the contracting lifecycle, continuously working with other teams to improve and automate. Furthermore, you are expected to signal regulatory developments and initiate updates to the contracts or processes where required. In short, the Contracting Unit is the first point of contact for all matters relating to client agreements. In this role you are strongly encouraged to share your knowledge and connect with sparring partners across the various departments.
