Act as a trusted business partner; focus on delivering pragmatic, business-first solutions that drive growth, moving beyond traditional, risk-averse legal management

Provide clear, solution-oriented legal guidance to external production partners, helping them navigate contractual obligations and regulatory requirements
Maintain close alignment with multiple internal cross-functional partners, including Content, Production, Marketing/PR teams, to ensure consistency and efficiency in deal execution and business operations
