GROWING FILM AND TV BUSINESS!

5+ YEARS PQE

Our client is an exciting and growing studio. It invests in, produces and distributes stellar Film and TV content across multiple platforms.

The Legal and Business Affairs team looks after the commercial, legal and business affairs operations of the company.

As a valued senior team member, you will work alongside some fantastic colleagues across the business. As the company expands its creative slate, your expertise will be needed in:

  • Supporting the development team-leading negotiations and drafting book/film options, writer agreements and broadcaster development agreements
  • Advising production teams on all aspects of production, including contracting for talent, crew, location agreements
  • Negotiating and drafting key talent agreements, including producer, director and lead artist agreements
  • Providing assistance to the business on financing transactions, restructurings and general M&A processes as the company acquires more businesses
  • Updating and managing precedent agreements as well as best practice process, protocols and guidance notes in accordance with applicable law
  • Managing members of the team

You will be a media lawyer who is also a strategic thinker. You will have significant experience in the Film and/or scripted TV sector (from a top law firm and/or in-house at a broadcaster, producer or major studio). As an inspiring manager, you will be part of a core strategic team helping the company to realise its ambitious growth plans.

This is a fantastic role, with the opportunity to work with great colleagues in an exciting media business.

Company

We are a boutique legal recruitment and resourcing consultancy, specialising in the placement of lawyers and legal professionals into roles both in-house and within law firms.

We pride ourselves on the relationships that we have built with our business partners over the many years that we have been in business.

We offer a unique service in the market place ­ a genuine fusion of in-house and private practice legal recruitment expertise, which offers a "full perspective" service to clients and candidates. Our careers as lawyers and now as legal recruitment consultants have enabled us to build a substantial network of contacts, which supports everything that we do.

Our clients and candidates choose to work with us because of our emphasis on building long-term relationships founded on integrity. It means recommendations are genuine, discretion assured and we never forget that today's junior lawyer is tomorrow's Managing Partner or General Counsel.
