Here, we know that each talent makes our collective bolder and brighter. We are guided by four core principles that underpin everything we do across all our diverse businesses:
  • Music is Everything: Music is our passion, and we can never get enough. Tastes, trends, and tech will change, but great artists and songwriters will always be our driving force.
  • Global Growth, Local Expertise: Music is a global language. Through communication and collaboration, our success can come from anywhere and translate everywhere.

  • Empowered by People: Like the artists we serve and the music they make, our differences make us stronger. This is a place where every talent can belong and build a career.
We remain committed to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. We know it fosters a culture where you can truly belong, contribute, and grow. We encourage applications from people of any age, gender identity, sexual orientation, race, religion, ethnicity, disability, veteran status, and any other characteristic or identity.

Job Title: Manager/Senior Manager, Digital Strategy & Business Development

A little bit about our team:

We strike deals with global distribution platforms and find new business opportunities in hopes of reaching audiences, growing monetization, and creating value for our labels and artists.

  • Analyze partner data and create financial models to help inform key decision making.
  • Find new ways to drive WMG revenues and create business opportunities on new and existing platforms.
  • Partner with legal on drafting and execution of contract amendments, renewals, term sheets and long form agreements.
  • Serve as a point of contact and communicate matters related to WMG's digital deals/partnerships to stakeholders including WMG's senior management, other internal divisions, and WMG's network of global affiliates.
  • Monitor emerging technologies, and media & consumer tech ecosystem trends for the purpose of developing new strategic initiatives.
  • Develop long-term strategies focused on WMG's relationship with DSPs and diversification of WMG's revenue and capabilities.
About you:
  • 4+ years of relevant work experience
  • Proven record working in an analytical capacity, with large data sets to create complex models around deal, partnership, and industry trend forecasting.
  • Music, media, or entertainment industry content licensing experience is preferred, as is experience with deal-driven analyses.
  • Driven, and inclined to take ownership of all facets of dealmaking, from inception to execution.
  • Ability to distill commercial and legal constructs into actionable data points.
  • Understanding of basic financial principles (e.g., revenue forecasting and recognition, cashflows, artist royalty obligations) to inform partnerships with various internal functions.
  • Proven ability supporting deal and project-based teams.
  • Strong Excel and PowerPoint skills, and experience with Google Workspace.
  • Proactive attitude and strong work ethic.
We'd love it if you also had:
  • Experience creating, presenting, and executing on new strategic initiatives.
  • Established record in applying innovative approaches and structures to deal making.
  • Excellent analytical ability, written communication, and interpersonal skills.
Education Required/Preferred
