Sr. Content & Editorial Partnerships Manager, Amazon Music

Job :  | Amazon Digital UK Limited

Amazon Music's Licensing team is looking for a Sr. Content & Editorial Partnerships Manager to own creative and commercial partnerships across music, podcasts, and video content on a global scale. You will take projects from initial concept through to delivery — writing creative briefs, negotiating contracts, and working with internal Legal, Finance, Analytics, and Editorial teams to bring each partnership to life.

You will manage multiple active projects at any given time, moving fluidly between strategic and executional work.

You will analyze business metrics to identify audience engagement opportunities, monitor the competitive landscape to inform Amazon Music's content strategy, and build relationships with a diverse range of external providers. The work spans storytelling and commercial negotiation in equal measure — no two days look the same.

• Build and implement scalable workflows to manage end-to-end delivery across music, podcast, and video projects, each with a distinct structure and deal type
• Negotiate and manage partnerships with external content providers, from initial outreach through to signed agreement and ongoing relationship management
• Collaborate with Legal, Finance, Analytics, and Editorial teams to evaluate, structure, and execute customer engagement opportunities
• Analyze business metrics and conduct deep-dive reviews to identify growth opportunities and inform content strategy
• Monitor the competitive landscape across music, podcast, and video to surface insights that shape Amazon Music's strategic direction

Your morning might start with a data deep-dive to assess a new content opportunity, before switching to contract redlines with Legal on an active partnership agreement. After lunch, you shift into creative mode — reviewing editorial content from a provider, then joining a call to explore a new collaboration. You will regularly connect with global counterparts across time zones, aligning on strategic initiatives and communicating updates to business and leadership teams.

No two days look the same, and the ability to move between analytical, commercial, and creative work is what makes this role distinctive.
