About the Role
This is a contractor role open to candidates based in London, with three days a week required onsite.
You'll be joining a global media and publishing company that manages one of the world's largest catalogs of video, image, audio, and font assets, as it rolls out a new digital rights management system across every business unit worldwide.
You'll own that rollout as the dedicated Technical Product Manager, setting direction, configuration standards, and workflow design for a system used by teams across regions and media types. You'll be the bridge between regional stakeholders and engineering, working directly with legal and editorial teams to turn real operational needs into automated workflows.
This is a brand-new role, built to be the technical and administrative backbone of a rights management program touching every asset the company acquires, produces, and publishes.
Most Important
- 3 to 5 years of experience in SaaS governance for an enterprise system, at a mid-to-senior level
- Experience working with legal, rights management, or media supply chain workflows (IP management, contract management, or governance for media assets)
- Strong communicator who can ask clarifying questions, explain technical and non-technical trade-offs, and help define API specifications
- Based in London, with three days a week required onsite
Nice to Have
- Direct experience with Rightsline or a comparable rights/DRM management system
- REST API and webhook experience for real-time data integration across enterprise systems
- SQL and Snowflake (or similar) experience building cross-departmental reporting dashboards
- Exposure to building AI-powered features for legal or editorial workflows
Personal Traits
- Proven relationship builder who works diplomatically across departments, business units, and time zones
- Self-driven, with a track record of seeing projects through to completion without heavy oversight
- Comfortable holding ambiguity, and translating messy current-state processes into a clear future state
- Genuinely curious — asks the right questions rather than assuming, and explains trade-offs clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders alike
