• Maintain accurate contract trackers, agreement maps, rights documentation, and deal records in SharePoint and other contract databases.
• Coordinate contract reviews through meetings, conference calls, and email while tracking documentation submitted across multiple departments.
• Support internal music rights information requests and archive responses for auditing, reporting, and visibility.
• Open and manage purchase orders and electronic invoices, monitor payment status, and resolve payment delays.
• Submit payment-term change requests and coordinate required approvals with finance.
• Support supplier onboarding by collecting tax and vendor documentation, maintaining accurate account information, and completing internal sponsorship requirements.
• Respond to supplier inquiries related to payments, taxes, account setup, and vendor-system troubleshooting.
• Maintain internal contract, rights, payment, and supplier management systems.
• Generate payment reports, contract summaries, and other operational documentation for internal stakeholders.
• Serve as a knowledgeable point of contact for contract management and compliance processes.
• Complete special administrative and operational projects as assigned.

• Significant experience supporting contracts involving music, talent, licensing, or related entertainment rights.
• Experience managing multiple deadlines, competing priorities, and high-volume administrative workflows with strong attention to detail.
• Experience collaborating across legal, finance, procurement, and creative functions.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, Outlook, and SharePoint.
• Experience using Adobe Acrobat, electronic signature tools such as DocuSign or Adobe Sign, and contract or payment management systems.
• Strong organizational, process management, written communication, and documentation skills.
• Strong interpersonal skills and the confidence to communicate effectively with legal professionals, creative stakeholders, suppliers, and external partners.
• Ability to exercise discretion and maintain confidentiality when handling sensitive agreements and business information.
