Own the tracking and management of licensing and rights usage across all production, ensuring every asset is cleared and compliant for its intended channels, territories and duration.
Work with production partners, suppliers and legal/business affairs to negotiate and secure the appropriate rights, mitigating risk to the client and the agency.
