About the role

Tulane University is seeking an experienced Assistant Director of Contract Services to lead Contract Management Services, overseeing review, negotiation, and execution of university contracts. The role requires clear guidance to stakeholders and collaboration with procurement, sourcing, and legal teams. You will manage templates, performance metrics, and ensure alignment of terms with Tulane’s policies while mitigating risk. Strong leadership and communication are essential.

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.
