About the Role

The Licensing Paralegal drafts, issues and maintains every Independent Contractor Agreement (ICA) between SERHANT. and its affiliated agents. This person turns approved recruiting and compensation terms into accurate, signed agreements, and keeps each agent's license and sponsorship records in line with state real estate commission rules.

• Licensing and compliance

o Verify each agent's license status, expiration and disciplinary history with the relevant state commission before an ICA is issued.

o Process license transfers, sponsorship changes and releases across every state where the brokerage operates.

o Track renewal and continuing-education deadlines and notify agents and managers ahead of them.

o Keep agent files audit-ready to state regulator and internal standards.

• Data and coordination

o Enter executed terms accurately into the CRM, back-office and commission systems so Finance pays agents correctly.

o Maintain a live tracker of every agreement in flight, from term sheet to signature to system setup.

o Answer agent and manager questions on agreement terms and licensing steps.

o Help maintain the ICA template library and clause bank as compensation plans and state rules change.

• *The company reserves the right to add or change duties at any time.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
