Lead, Business Development & Licensing - Sureel AI at Warner Music Group | chakrie

Requirements

You have deep experience structuring and negotiating commercial agreements in music, media, or technology, including licensing deals, platform integrations, revenue-share structures, or rights-technology transactions.
You've owned the business side of negotiations with platforms, DSPs, technology companies, or rights holders and carried complex deals from term sheet through signature.
You understand the economics of the music industry: how rights generate revenue, how licensing frameworks are built, and how value flows between platforms, intermediaries, and rights holders.
You're comfortable with data and financial detail. You can model a revenue structure, pressure-test assumptions, and explain the business logic clearly to technical teams and senior counterparties.
You can structure complex deals and find approaches that work for the different parties involved.
You build trust quickly and can represent leadership in high-stakes negotiations, make judgment calls on terms, and know when to escalate.
You communicate clearly in writing and in person and can stay calm in a fast-moving environment.
You understand how pricing, licensing structures, technical standards, and ecosystem incentives can support platform adoption and durable commercial outcomes.
You are interested in the music industry and enjoy working in a small, collaborative, startup-paced team.
