Global Business Development and Digital Strategy Manager

This is a Full Time Job

As Manager, Analytics & Automation, Global Business Development & Digital Strategy, you will join an international team of data-savvy negotiators and business analysts who execute content distribution partnerships with a broad range of digital partners, from the largest global companies to emerging start-ups. You will be a critical part of the team and be exposed to digital distribution deal structures and strategies.

You will be expected to take advanced analytical responsibility and bring your findings and perspectives on global licensing negotiations and strategic revenue growth initiatives across music, video, UGC, social, emerging digital verticals, and technology companies. You will be responsible for forecasting revenue, developing monetization scenarios based on varying sets of assumptions, modelling deal economics, analyzing pricing, benchmarking and designing KPIs. Your work will support commercial recommendations that directly influence multi-year, high-value, time-sensitive global agreements. Equally, you will be tasked with leveraging your skills and experience to accelerate the team’s analytical capabilities, evaluate and introduce AI-powered solutions, and rethink workflows to bring speed, accuracy, scalability, and insight generation to the next level. This role is for builders: you will architect agentic AI workflows, automate what others accept as manual, and challenge long-standing processes with creative solutions.

What you'll do:
• Decision support for negotiations: design and own robust revenue planning models supporting global and regional licensing projects across a broad range of digital distribution partnerships.
• Identify needs and challenge outdated processes within the team; propose alternative solutions and build prototypes to evaluate them. Redesign core analytical workflows and unlock efficiencies using modern tools. Build repeatable frameworks to monitor partner performance. Experiment with agentic AI systems that automate analysis, forecasting, and partner reporting end-to-end.
• Collaborate with other functions and teams on large-scale financial and usage datasets to automate recurring analyses and improve data integrity and reconciliation.
• Present findings and recommendations to senior management, distil complex analyses into actionable commercial insights, influence decision-making without formal authority through credibility, clarity, and rigor.
• Track country-by-country KPIs, produce forward-looking market assessments
• Interface with SME’s local teams around the world to collect and share data and insights for analysis.

Who you are:
• You have at least an undergraduate degree with 2 years’ work experience in banking, finance, consulting, entertainment or technology companies. International experience is a plus.
• You demonstrate method, experience and rigor in financial analysis and modelling, presenting both inputs and outcomes clearly, thoroughly and concisely. Excel proficiency in financial modelling is essential, and knowledge of SQL, data visualization (e.g., PowerBI, Tableau) and ETL (e.g., Alteryx) are highly advised.
• You are also an AI-first thinker who uses LLMs, automation tools, agentic frameworks, and code-based workflows.
