Review tender and RFQ documents for onerous terms, compliance requirements and required supporting documents; coordinate supplier registration, due-diligence questionnaires, anti-corruption declarations and codes of conduct.

Who You Are

You work directly with Sales, Operations, Marketing and Country teams to understand the commercial deal, explain proposed changes in practical terms, and support negotiation calls or email exchanges with counterparties. Meticulous & Organized: You possess meticulous attention to detail with the ability to handle a high volume of requests, prioritise, and meet business deadlines without losing accuracy.

Independent & Discerning: You are confident working independently and remotely from the Hong Kong team. You have good judgement about when to ask, when to escalate, and can recognise when a matter needs a lawyer (e.g., personal data, employment, litigation or demand letters, regulatory correspondence, related-party or listed-company issues, non-standard liability).

What We're Looking For

Around 3 to 6 years of hands-on experience reviewing, drafting and negotiating commercial contracts in an in-house legal, contracts, procurement, commercial or paralegal role. Logistics, transport, e-commerce, technology platform or other B2B services experience is an advantage.

Education

A degree or diploma in law, business, or a related field, or an equivalent professional qualification (for example a paralegal or contract management certification). Admission as a lawyer is not required. Commercial Acumen: Solid working knowledge of standard commercial clauses and how they allocate risk, and the ability to explain them to non-legal colleagues.

Communication & Tools: Excellent written and spoken English; comfortable drafting clear, professional emails and mark-ups in Microsoft Word with tracked changes.
