Content ID Manager, ITN Productions - Digital (12 Month FTC/Attachment) in London

We're looking for a driven and experienced Content ID Manager to manage ITN's Content ID and Digital Rights Management operations within its newly formed Digital Department within ITN Productions.

You'll be well‑versed in platform policy, understanding and driving commercial value from the practice, as well as be comfortable presenting data and insights derived from that work to key stakeholders and colleagues across the business. You'll directly report to the Director of Digital Content.

• Build a data workflow to help support learning and editorial strategy for the Digital, Archive and Video‑Syndication teams (supported by the Director of Digital Content & Corporate Strategy Director).
• Operational support across our platform CMS’s, including new channel set up, role requirements and account management.
