## About the role

We're hiring our first Sr Manager / Director, Legal Operations to serve as the front door of Legal at Nex Playground and to design and build the operational infrastructure the company will need over the next 18 months and beyond. The role may be leveled at Sr Manager or Director based on the candidate’s experience and demonstrated scope. Reporting directly to the General Counsel, you will be the first dedicated legal operations hire in the company.

- Lead implementation of our first CLM system (Spotdraft or Ironclad), including workflow design, templates, approval routing, finance and e-signature integration, and reporting
- Design a template and playbook library for our highest-volume agreement types, in partnership with the GC and Commercial Counsel, so the business can self-serve on lower-risk requests
- Establish signature and approval workflows, including delegation of authority guidelines, e-signature administration (e.g., DocuSign), and coordination of notarization where needed
- Support corporate governance motions: track board and committee meeting materials, minutes, and written consents in partnership with the GC and CFO
- Maintain the corporate minute book, equity documentation, and corporate records, and coordinate with Finance/People on cap table accuracy and equity administration touchpoints (option grants, 409A timing)
