renegotiator
Contract terms changer
A renegotiator is someone who negotiates again—typically to revise terms of an existing agreement.
The word usually appears in contexts where contracts, treaties, or deals are being reopened: The president positioned himself as a renegotiator of trade deals.
It can carry positive connotations of getting better terms or negative ones of breaking commitments.
