The Opportunity
Revolution Medicines is seeking an experienced commercial contracts attorney to serve as Associate Director, Contracts Counsel. Reporting to the Senior Director, Contracts, this role will provide strategic, practical legal support to the Commercial function and other cross-functional stakeholders as the Company prepares for commercialization and continues to grow. Working collaboratively within the Legal department, this role will lead the commercial contracting discipline, including the drafting, negotiation, and management of a broad range of commercial agreements, advise on related legal, business, regulatory, and compliance considerations, and drive strategic contracting initiatives with impact beyond the Legal function.
Responsibilities:
Lead the drafting, review, negotiation, and management of commercial agreements supporting commercialization and overall business operations, including but not limited to master services, consulting, data, distribution, licenses, market access, patient support, and other customer- and vendor-facing arrangements.
Partner with Commercial, Market Access, Marketing, Sales, Medical Affairs, Patient Support, Finance, Procurement, and Compliance to deliver timely, practical legal support.
Understand how to contract and operate in a highly regulated pharmaceutical industry environment and identify and proactively support overall healthcare compliance.
Advise internal stakeholders on contract structure, interpretation, performance, and compliance, translating complex legal concepts into clear, actionable business advice.
Proactively identify, assess, and communicate legal, regulatory, operational, and reputational risks associated with commercial arrangements, including how contracting issues affect other functions, and recommend pragmatic mitigation strategies for highly complex or novel matters.
Translate Legal and Commercial strategy into commercial contracting plans that support commercialization and launch readiness, manage their execution, and track operational effectiveness, consistent with applicable legal and compliance requirements.
Establish, develop, and maintain commercial contracting policies, procedures, templates, playbooks, approval processes, and contract-lifecycle tools, including the Company's contract management system and key obligations, in alignment with established Legal department objectives.
Drive contracting process improvement and change initiatives, and train and guide business teams on contract templates, contracting processes, and commercial-contracting best practices to ensure successful adoption, transparency, buy-in, and alignment.
Coordinate with counterparties, outside counsel, and internal Legal and Compliance colleagues on contract negotiations, disputes, and other commercial matters, as appropriate, and manage outside counsel.
Support contracting for healthcare professional engagements, including consulting, advisory board, and speaker arrangements in coordination with the Compliance team.
Regularly collaborate with and advise senior management and executive leadership on significant commercial contracting matters, influence policy and decision-making, and provide input that consistently informs director-level decisions.
