- Taking primary responsibility for reviewing, drafting, and negotiating vendor agreements, as well as for optimizing our vendor procurement process.

What we’re looking for:
- Experience supporting a fast-paced, dynamic sales function, in addition to cross-functional team collaborations.

- Must be solution-oriented and client-friendly when operating with limited information in a fast-paced environment. A successful candidate will meet tight deadlines and properly manage client expectations while maintaining high-quality work product.
- Must have executive presence to successfully negotiate with outside vendors, outside counsel, internal and external clients, etc.

What to Expect at TRM
TRM moves fast—really fast. We know a lot of startups say that, but we mean it. We operate with urgency, ownership, and high standards. As a result, you’ll be joining a team that’s highly engaged, mission-driven, and constantly evolving.
To support this intensity, we’re also intentional about rest and recharge. We offer generous benefits, including PTO, Holidays, and Parental Leave for full time employees.
That said, TRM may not be the right fit for everyone. If you're optimizing for work life balance, we encourage you to:
- Ask your interviewers how they personally approach balance within their teams, and
- Reflect on whether this is the right season in your life to join a high-velocity environment.
- Be honest with yourself about what energizes you—and what drains you
We’re upfront about this because we want every new team member to thrive—not just survive.
