    Job Title:
    Manager, Legal & Business Affairs, Warner Records (12 Month FTC)

    Our UK legal and business affairs team is responsible for negotiating and drafting commercial contracts on behalf of the business, as well as providing commercial advice and legal support.

    The team is involved at every stage of an artist's relationship with their label, including signing first recording agreements, engaging contributors throughout the recording process, creating artwork and visual content to accompany releases, and supporting activities throughout the marketing and promotional campaigns.

    This role primarily supports and works closely with the A&R, marketing and creative teams at Warner Records to sign artists and ensure the label has the rights and clearances required to release their artists' music and execute successful marketing and promotional campaigns.

    The role sits in our central UK legal and business affairs team, but requires working closely with the creative and marketing teams and others within the labels.

    You will draft and negotiate artist recording agreements, as well as a range of commercial contracts relating to the artists' recordings, including third party clearance agreements for producers/mixers and featured artists.

    You will draft and negotiate live performance agreements, granting rights to a range of broadcasters and live event promoters when our artists are recorded performing live for radio/TV/online or at festivals and other live events, including liaising with the label as well as the artists' management teams to obtain applicable approvals.

    You will support the development of more junior team members.

    You will draft and negotiate agreements when our artists collaborate with third party brands, including product placements in music videos or branded live performances.

    You will be responsible for monitoring option dates in respect of artists on the roster.

    You will help to handle any contentious issues, including copyright infringement, breach of contract and debt recovery, including drafting of letters.

    You will provide other general legal and business affairs support as required across the label as delegated by the Director, for example preparing deal memos, contract summaries, notices, non-disclosure agreements and side-letters.

    You are an experienced qualified lawyer (PQE 3+ years), with at least 2 years' experience within an in-house music (or similar industry) team or in a relevant team in a private practice firm.

    You have a minimum of a 2:1 degree (LLB or other undergraduate degree with law conversion).
    You have sound commercial acumen.
    You are a clear and confident communicator, personable, and enjoy building relationships with the business and colleagues.

    You are able to draft and negotiate a variety of agreements in the best interests of Warner Records and in accordance with Warner Music Group commercial strategy and operational guidelines.

    As the home to Asylum, Atlantic, East West, Elektra, FFRR, Fueled by Ramen, Nonesuch, Parlophone, Rhino, Roadrunner, Sire, Warner Records, Warner Classics, and several other of the world's premier recording labels, Warner Music Group champions emerging artists and global superstars alike.

    And our renowned publishing company, Warner Chappell Music, represents genre-spanning songwriters and producers through a catalogue of more than one million copyrights worldwide.

    Redefining what it means to be a music company in the 21st century, our consumer brands include trend-setters like UPROXX, Songkick, HipHopDX, and EMP.

    We're the home to WMX – the next generation services division that connects artists with fans and amplifies brands in creative, immersive, and engaging ways – and Alternative Distribution Alliance (ADA) – the ground-breaking global distribution company for independent artists and labels.

    Together, we are

    Warner Music Group:
    Music With Vision & Voice.

    WMG is committed to inclusion and diversity in all aspects of our business.

    We are proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and will evaluate qualified applicants without regard to race, religion or belief, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marital or civil partnership status, disability, pregnancy, childbirth or any other characteristic protected by law.

    Warner Music Group is all about our people. We are one global company made up of the most knowledgeable, passionate, and creative people in our business.

    We strive to set WMG apart from the rest of the industry by embracing a philosophy of innovation that is part of our company's DNA.

    Consider a career at WMG and be a part of one of the biggest forces in music today.
