Responsibilities
As Renewals Manager, you'll own Everlaw's rolling pipeline of internal SaaS and IT contract renewals, making sure no agreement lapses into an unfavorable auto-renewal while driving cost savings through usage analysis and license right-sizing.

This is a full-time, non-exempt position based in our Oakland, CA office with a hybrid work schedule: in office M/W/Th with the option to work from home on Tu/Fr.
Maintain a rolling 12-month renewal calendar, initiating cycles 90–120 days prior to expiration to prevent unintended auto-renewals or contract lapses.
Analyze utilization data alongside IT Asset Management to identify unused seats, over-provisioned tiers, and shelfware before setting negotiation targets.
Negotiate in-scope software and IT renewals using established playbooks, benchmarks, and pre-approved fallback positions to limit uplifts and secure favorable terms.
Coordinate cross-functional reviews across Legal, Security, IT, Compliance, and FP&A to confirm data privacy, security, and budget approvals prior to execution.
Administer procurement software systems (specifically ZIP) and maintain accurate contract records, renewal dates, spend data, and savings metrics in the system of record.
