- To have an in-depth understanding of BBC editorial guidelines and policies, and ensure these are met in relation to the sale of clip content to avoid any instances of being in breach of said guidelines.
- To balance risk and be mindful of repercussions in regard to reuse of material where rights information may be unclear or unavailable to ensure that any licenses offered do not damage the business.
- Raise invoices, keep accurate financial records, pass payment and invoicing instructions to royalties. Maintain a record of expenditure to ensure that third parties are paid the required income and that income flows back to the Public Service in timely fashion.
- Develop a strong working relationship with existing and prospective clients and internal teams to maintain and grow sales opportunities.
- An accomplished archive sales professional with excellent commercial acumen with strong and demonstrable knowledge of the rights and clearance process.
- Proven negotiation skills.
- Extremely well organised with an ability to follow and develop processes.
- Good interpersonal skills and able to work with colleagues at a more senior level.
- Ability to build strong relationships with existing and potential clients.
- Ability to manage multiple accounts and prioritise during busy periods.
