Our fully integrated and configurable platform provides customers with comprehensive access to all their rights and royalties, across all markets and platforms, instantly. and in-app reports and timely alerts ensure our customers never miss an opportunity to do more. Reporting to the VP of Strategy, the Corporate Strategy Lead serves as a right hand on Rightsline’s highest-priority company initiatives.

You will help drive annual and quarterly planning, maintain a sharp view of the market and competitive landscape, take on high-stakes strategic analysis, and produce the materials leadership and the board rely on, partnering closely with Product, Engineering, Go-to-Market, Finance, and Operations. You will also help steer a focused set of cross-functional programs, including Rightsline’s AI initiatives, from business case through measurable results. Success will be measured by the quality and adoption of the strategic plan, the influence of your analysis on key decisions, the on-time delivery of the cross-functional initiatives you own, and the clarity of the executive and board materials you produce.

What You Will

OwnStrategic Planning & Performance Help lead annual and quarterly strategic planning: shape the framework, drive the analysis, and turn diverse input into a set of committed priorities and measurable goals.



Establish and maintain the cadence for tracking progress against company priorities and OKRs, flagging risks early and recommending course corrections.

Market

Intelligence & Strategic Analysis Produce the crisp, well-reasoned materials that leadership and the board rely on, with a clear point of view rather than a data dump. Lead high-priority initiatives that span functions and have no natural home, building alignment through clarity and credibility rather than authority. Define baselines and success metrics for strategic initiatives, measure results honestly, and recommend when to scale, adjust, or retire an effort. 4–5 years of experience spanning management consulting (or a comparable strategy environment) and an in-house strategy, BizOps, corporate development, or program leadership role.

The consulting-plus-operating combination matters: we want the analytical discipline and the experience of having actually shipped something. You are comfortable building a business case from ambiguous inputs, stress-testing your own assumptions, and defending the answer. A track record of owning complex, cross-functional initiatives end to end, not just planning them.

The ability to lead through influence in a fast-moving,



resource-constrained environment where priorities shift and the answer is rarely handed to you. A working understanding of AI and how it is changing software businesses, enough to evaluate opportunities and separate real use cases from hype. Technical depth is not required.

A collaborative, coachable mindset that prioritizes “we,” and a personal commitment to continuous learning and professional development. Bachelor’s degree in business, economics, engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

Experience in B2B SaaS, ideally enterprise software sold to media, entertainment, publishing, or music companies. Domain exposure to rights, licensing, royalties, content distribution, or intellectual property, or a demonstrated ability to get deep in a complex domain quickly.

Experience supporting board or investor reporting, ideally in a private-equity-backed or high-growth company. Exposure to corporate development or M&A; work, such as target screening, diligence, or integration planning. Familiarity with modern planning and delivery practices, such as OKRs, portfolio prioritization, and agile working models.

MBA or another relevant advanced degree. That means staying flexible, letting go of what isn't working, and treating uncertainty as opportunity rather than obstacle. Your customers count on you.
