About the role

Original posting from Garnerhealth via Greenhouse

What you’ll be part of

Garner is on a mission to transform the U.S. healthcare system — and we’re the only proven player doing exactly that. We partner with employers to redesign how healthcare works: applying 550+ proprietary clinical metrics across 80+ specialties to a dataset of 320M+ patients to identify the best-performing doctors, then using compelling incentives to steer members to the care that helps them get healthier, faster.

The result is a rare “win win” — better care and lower costs for both members and employers. In just five years, our work has helped over 2.5 million people access higher-quality care and saved $1B in healthcare costs. We recently raised our Series E and have doubled five years running. If you've ever wanted your work to solve a problem that touches every person in this country, this is the opportunity to do exactly that. You'd be joining a team fundamentally reimagining healthcare in the U.S. — and using AI to scale that impact further and faster than anyone else can.

About the role:

We are looking for an exceptional Senior Commercial Counsel to join our team. Reporting to the General Counsel, you will play an important role in managing the Company’s commercial transactions from end-to-end, including review, drafting and negotiation of agreements, advising internal stakeholders on risks and business goals, and developing, improving and scaling processes and systems related to contract management. You will also provide generalist support for day-to-day legal issues on an as-needed basis.

What you will do:

Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements, including master service agreements, business associate agreements, vendor agreements, data use agreements, data protection agreements, partnership agreements, non-disclosure agreements, and employment-related agreements.

Maintain and improve contract templates, approval matrices, and internal guidance relating to transactional issues.

Manage and develop transactional processes, including contract lifecycle management,  to boost efficiency and support greater scale.

Advise internal stakeholders, primarily on commercial transactions but also on other day-to-day legal issues and challenges as needed.

What you will bring to the team:

4+ years of experience reviewing, drafting, and negotiating commercial agreements.

A J.D. from a U.S. law school and admitted to a state bar. 

No fear of technical, financial, or data science concepts.

A willingness to “roll up your sleeves” and do whatever is necessary to ensure company success.

Ideally, experience working in a rapidly-evolving startup environment and a desire to support our mission to improve the U.S. healthcare system.

Compensation Transparency:

The base salary range for this position is $210,000 - $230,000. Individual compensation for this role will depend on various factors, including qualifications, skills, and applicable laws. In addition to base compensation, this role is eligible to participate in our equity incentive and competitive benefits plans, including but not limited to: flexible PTO, Medical/Dental/Vision plan options, 401(k) with company match, flexible spending accounts, Teladoc Health and more.
