Good to know: The position has occurred as a result of business growth and a subsequent need for a contracts subject matter expert. The duties are currently being performed by the General Manager and split between various business units and individuals. Due to gaps in the Commercial Function, the company has a number of difficult-to-exit contracts that do not add optimal value.
