About the role

PJT Partners is seeking a Counsel for Procurement and Vendor Risk to lead the legal review and management of vendor and third-party contracts, including technology, AI-related engagements, and data protections. You will partner with business teams to negotiate terms and implement risk controls across the contract lifecycle. The ideal candidate has 5+ years in commercial contracting with a JD from an accredited law school; in-house experience is preferred.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
