Remote Business Affairs Manager Jobs (NOW HIRING)

At Copper Giants, we are out to destroy the current client/agency working relationship and replace it with something radical: Joy. We combine our extensive consumer knowledge through data and research from Liberty Mutual with talented, award-winning former agency professionals who are tired of the old industry BS - and who love doing great work with great partners. Together, we're building and transforming brands to do well financially, do good in the world, and enjoy doing it.

We're looking for a driven Business Affairs Manager to join our anti-agency agency.

• Oversee and manage talent strategy across campaigns and agencies, including negotiating talent agreements, tracking talent costs and projections, and proactively communicating relevant updates. Experience working with overscale talent is highly valued.
• Monitor the evolving AI production landscape and advise on internal policies governing AI-generated content, applying a strong understanding of Generative AI production and associated intellectual property implications.
• Partner closely with producers, creatives, business stakeholders, and external agency teams throughout the creative development and production process.
• Manage licensing, usage rights, and renewals for creative assets, including music, stock photography, video, imagery, and other licensed content, while maintaining talent and asset tracking systems.
• Support all spokesperson and mascot appearances, ensuring proper rights management and compliance.
• Manage network clearance for all broadcast content across agency partners.
• Support production partner management, including contracting, agreements, and vendor relationships.
• Maintain a strong understanding of the Liberty Mutual brand voice and ensure business affairs guidance aligns with advertising objectives.
• Collaborate closely with Liberty Mutual Corporate Legal, Procurement, Advertising, Copper Giants, external advertising agencies, talent unions, and outside legal counsel as needed.

• Significant Business Affairs experience within an advertising agency, brand, or similar marketing-driven organization, along with a strong understanding of the creative development process from brief to market. They have expertise in talent negotiations, SAG-AFTRA agreements, intellectual property and rights management, and advertising-related legal and business affairs matters.
• Success in this role requires strong judgment, communication, presentation, project management, and organizational skills, as well as the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
