We’re determined to make a difference and are proud to be an insurance company that goes well beyond coverages and policies. Working here means having every opportunity to achieve your goals – and to help others accomplish theirs, too. Join our team as we help shape the future.

The Commercial Transactions Law Unit is seeking a transactional attorney to support enterprise contracting, with a focus on technology and commercial agreements (including data, cloud services, professional services, software/SaaS, outsourcing) and procurement of AI-enabled tools and services.

This role partners closely with Strategic Sourcing & Procurement and other stakeholders to enable efficient sourcing outcomes while ensuring appropriate contracting risk controls.

This role will have a Hybrid work arrangement, with the expectation of working in an office (Hartford, CT) 3 days a week (Tuesday through Thursday).

Key Responsibilities

  • Draft, review, and negotiate technology and commercial agreements, including cloud, SaaS/software, professional services, outsourcing, and data-related arrangements.
  • Partner with Procurement on sourcing-related contracting and lifecycle activity (e.g., new agreements, renewals, amendments, escalations), consistent with enterprise procurement requirements.
  • Support contracting for AI-enabled vendor offerings by identifying AI/ML/GenAI functionality and ensuring appropriate contractual protections are incorporated when warranted.
  • Contribute to and help maintain internal contracting enablement materials (templates, playbooks, preferred language, and guidance) to improve consistency and efficiency.
  • Contract tool enablement: Build familiarity with contract template and contract review/compare software and apply these tools to improve contracting workflows and knowledge management.
  • Potential SME scope: Serve as (or develop into) a subject matter resource for managing the team’s contract resources, including template governance, clause libraries, versioning/precedent organization, and related process improvements.

Qualifications (Required)

  • J.D. from an accredited law school and active bar membership in at least one U.S. jurisdiction.
  • Demonstrated experience drafting and negotiating technology/commercial contracts (e.g., SaaS/software, cloud, professional services, outsourcing, and/or data agreements).
  • Strong judgment, negotiation skills, and ability to translate legal issues into practical, business-focused guidance.
  • Experience operating in areas of legal uncertainty to help business navigate emerging areas of risk and opportunities.

Qualifications (Preferred)

  • In-house or law firm experience partnering with Procurement/Strategic Sourcing on enterprise vendor negotiations and contracting processes.
  • Familiarity with AI-related contracting considerations and approaches for when vendors use AI in providing software/services.
  • Interest or experience supporting contracting technology initiatives (e.g., CLM, contract comparison/review tools, template automation, internal clause repositories).
  • Demonstrated ability to collaborate, influence, and communicate effectively in cross functional, matrixed environments involving business, technology and risk governors.

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.
