Accounts or Legal Staff from the Film/Television Industry required for I.T. Client Relationship Management
READ THIS ADVERT ALL THE WAY THROUGH BEFORE APPLYING!
If you currently work in the Film or Television industry, how do you fancy a move to the “other side of the fence” as it were, to service a client base consisting of some of the biggest names in the entertainment and licensing industry, such as Twentieth Century Fox, Paramount, MTV, Mattel and Harley Davidson?
The Company:
What we have here is the world leader in the provision of software systems to the music, entertainment and licensing industry. They are a software house with a range of products and this vacancy relates to their Contract Management System product aimed specifically at the licensing industry (for a definition of “licensing” in this context, see
www.licensing.org. A good example of merchandising/licensing is when a range of toys or products are released to promote a film or TV series, e.g. Star Wars, Toy Story, Transformers, The Simpsons, etc. ).
The Job:
They are seeking an individual to assist their clients through all stages of the supply process, from sales support (this is NOT a sales position – there will be no sales pressure on you!) to implementation, installation, configuration, project management, training, quality assurance and then support & client relationship management post-implementation. The sales support aspect of the role consists of simply demonstrating the product, NOT selling it! Therefore, we need a confident individual who would relish the prospect of going out and meeting clients, not someone for whom this would be a concern.
Yes, this is an I.T. position as the implementation we’re talking about is the implementation of software products but no, you do not need I.T. technical skills (although that would help – computer literacy would be useful).
The Experience Required:
This company is looking for INDUSTRY experience – someone from the Film and TV industry or the brand merchandising/licensing industry, not necessarily a technical person.
Consequently, the profile of person they are looking for is as follows:
At least three years experience working in the Film or TV industry
EITHER:
• As an accountant in a Film or TV company, for example a royalty administrator would be ideal
OR:
• In the legal department of a Film or TV company, for example as a contract administrator
PLUS:
• Experience in the licensing/merchandising aspect of the Film or TV industry.
Please note, this experience is essential. We require someone from the Film or TV industry with licensing or merchandising experience and you must match the above profile in order to be eligible for this role. Ideally, they want someone from the licensing/merchandising industry, but if your experience has been predominantly in Film and TV with an element of licensing, that is acceptable too.
The Opportunity:
The opportunities here are huge, instead of the “glass ceilings” that one can encounter in the large blue-chips! First of all, this is a genuine ground-floor opportunity as you would be the first employee of this type, so prospects here are to grow a team beneath you further down the line. At the moment, one of the directors is doing all the sales and he needs someone to help implement what he’s sold! There is a wide variety of tasks here, you certainly won’t get bored! You will be dealing with a large number of clients, many of them major names in the industry. This is a chance to learn a great deal more about the licensing industry from “the outside in”.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a specific requirement for either accounts or legal staff from the Film or TV industry. Please be aware that there is no point in applying if you do not match the above criteria.
Accounts or Legal Staff from the Film/TV Industry, London.
