Contract & Billing Operations Manager

PeopleGrove is looking for a detail-oriented and commercially savvy professional to manage contract negotiations with our higher education partners and support key finance operations. Reporting to the Controller, this role owns the end-to-end negotiation process for new sales agreements, renewals, and RFP responses serving as the primary point of contact for partner institutions throughout the contracting lifecycle. Beyond contracts, this person will also lend support to billing plans and collections as needed, giving them meaningful visibility into how deal terms translate into revenue outcomes. 

This is a highly cross-functional role that sits at the intersection of sales, legal, and finance. The ideal candidate is comfortable negotiating directly with higher ed procurement and legal offices, can make sound, independent judgment calls on contract terms within established guardrails, and brings the same rigor to billing and collections support when called upon.
