About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Own Mantel's commercial contracts end-to-end: draft, negotiate, and close MSAs, NDAs, engineering service agreements, term sheets, licensing agreements, offtake agreements, strategic supply agreements, strategic partnership agreements and project-level commercial contracts
- Take and defend clear positions on representations and warranties, indemnification, liability caps, IP ownership & governance, and dispute resolution - and know when to hold firm and when to negotiate
- Develop and maintain standard form agreements and negotiation playbooks that keep Mantel's contracting process efficient and consistent
- Maintain a clean contracts repository and ensure Mantel's obligations, rights, and key dates are tracked and enforced

- Serve as a trusted, accessible internal legal resource across the organization - fast, practical, and easy to work with
- Work closely with the commercial, engineering, and finance teams to understand the deals Mantel is pursuing and the legal risks that actually matter
- Draft and negotiate term sheets that set the right commercial and legal foundation before full agreements are executed
- Own Mantel's licensing strategy from a contracts and legal perspective — understanding how IP rights, exclusivity provisions, grant-back clauses, and royalty structures interact with commercial objectives
- Identify and push back on terms that create undue legal risk or limit Mantel's flexibility as the business scales
