Whether it’s ensuring live rights content is delivered on time, streamlining editing and publishing workflows, or aligning international teams on a shared approach, you’ll be at the centre of it all. This role requires a blend of strategic vision, operational detail, P&L accountability, Suppliers and partnership management, and the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels to ensure DAZN’s content ecosystem performs at its very best.
