Inside Sales Manager

Department: Licensing

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: Los Angeles

Description

MPLC is the market leader in non-theatrical licensing. We are on a mission to enable companies to use world-class film and television entertainment while supporting the creative industries and protecting their intellectual property.

At its simplest, companies around the world use TV and films to help their business. Whether it is gyms trying to create a great environment for their customers, or corporate employers making their staff/break rooms/call center lounges a better place to be... hundreds of thousands of companies are showing content in public spaces.

Great content can only be made if creators are paid fairly for what they produce. So we provide a simple, affordable license to businesses. We then pay royalties from our license to our rights holders; from major Hollywood studios to local TV production companies.

Without MPLC, these performances would still occur. But they would infringe copyrights and deprive our rightsholders' of the money they are entitled to. Our license enables customers to run their businesses compliantly and with peace of mind.

We work hard to educate organisations about the importance of respecting copyright, and MPLC is a key player in the entertainment and intellectual property ecosystem.

Our company is on a truly exciting journey. We're investing heavily in our teams, growing fast, making much better use of technology and have ambitious plans for the future.

Our sales team is full of strategic, sales consultants and educators. Tenacious trailblazers. Explorers. Team players. Articulate communicators and patient, empathetic listeners; and we are looking to hire an Inside Sales Manager to join our team.
