BUSINESS AFFAIRS COORDINATOR - MEDIA/TV/CONTENT DISTRIBUTION

6 MONTH FTC; LONDON

UNQUALIFIED WITH SOME EXPERIENCE

(REF: SF/1621)

Our client is a successful global leader in the TV world producing and distributing entertainment, sports, factual and movie channels across Latin America, Europe, Asia and Africa.

Their impressive Head of Legal requires a Business Affairs Coordinator to support all areas of the Content Distribution department (including licensing, acquisitions, co-productions, pre-sales and format agreements) within a dynamic and international business, where the Business & Legal Affairs function is regarded as pivotal.

You will be responsible for the following key areas:

  • negotiating and drafting license agreements (programs and formats) and distribution agreements for factual and scripted content, under the supervision of a legal counsel.
  • partner with the Content department for analysing and summarising rights and obligations of acquired and produced programs.
  • partner with Sales and other internal business constituents throughout the contract lifecycle to ensure customer success and protection of our client's IP.

In order to be successful, you need to have a minimum of 1 year's experience at this level from within a legal team.

You will be highly organised with a great eye for detail. You will be confident and enjoy being the ambassador for the team and the " go to" person for all initial queries.

In return, you will have highly approachable, supportive managers who are incredibly competent in this field.
