• Lead outbound commercial conversations and manage the full deal pipeline, from initial outreach through proposal development, negotiation, and contract execution.
• Create tailored commercial proposals and licensing structures for different IPs, territories, and partner profiles.
• Assess the commercial viability of opportunities through revenue, cost, and profitability analysis, working closely with Finance and other internal stakeholders.
• Negotiate commercial terms that balance growth, profitability, brand protection, and long-term partner value.
• Manage a portfolio of prospective and active partners, building trusted relationships and identifying opportunities to expand successful collaborations.
• Collaborate closely with Legal, Finance, Operations, Marketing, and Production teams to ensure smooth deal execution and successful launches.
• Monitor market trends, competitive activity, and new entertainment formats to inform licensing strategy and identify whitespace opportunities.
• Maintain rigorous pipeline reporting, regularly presenting commercial progress, forecasts, and key decisions to leadership.

• Strong commercial and negotiation skills, with the ability to structure compelling, mutually beneficial partnerships.
• Analytical and financially minded, with experience building business cases, evaluating P&Ls, and assessing the profitability of new opportunities.
• Entrepreneurial, proactive, and comfortable operating with ownership in a fast-paced, international environment.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to articulate ideas clearly and credibly to internal and external stakeholders.
• Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple deals, stakeholders, and priorities across regions.
• Professional working proficiency in English is required. Additional languages are a strong plus.
• A genuine interest in live entertainment, experiential formats, and building global IPs is highly valued.
