The Contracts Senior Representative will support Keysight’s US and Canadian sales organizations by administering and managing a broad range of customer agreements associated with the sale of Keysight products, software, services, and solutions. This role is responsible for reviewing and interpreting contractual terms and conditions, managing existing agreements and amendments, identifying non-standard requirements and potential risks, and working with internal stakeholders to determine appropriate solutions and escalation paths.

This position requires strong judgment, problem-solving skills, and the ability to understand and apply commercial and contractual concepts in situations where the appropriate solution may not always be clearly defined. The Contracts Senior Representative will work independently while collaborating closely with Sales, Customer Service, Legal, Finance, and other internal teams to help address customer contractual requirements while supporting Keysight’s business objectives and risk tolerance.

The ideal candidate brings experience administering commercial customer contracts within a large or complex organization and is comfortable supporting sophisticated customers, interpreting contractual terms and conditions, and navigating varying contractual requirements. Some negotiation of customer terms may be required, while more complex or significant negotiations are handled in partnership with Contracts Managers and other appropriate stakeholders.

This role offers flexibility in work location. While the team operates in a largely remote environment, there is a preference for a candidate based near our Loveland, Colorado office, where proximity to members of the Contracts and Legal organizations can provide additional opportunities for collaboration, particularly during onboarding. Remote candidates with the experience and skills needed to be successful in the role will also be considered.
