Amazon · Culver City, CA · 1 mo ago
ManagementFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, application instructions, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Must not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. The posting includes base salary range for location (USA, CA, Culver City - 206,600.00 - 279,600.00 USD annually; USA, FL, Miami - same). Also mentions sign-on payments and RSUs, comprehensive benefits list. So we have Pay and Benefits sections. Schedule not mentioned, so omit. Also we have "About the role" content: description paragraph about building future of entertainment, Prime Video, looking for Business Affairs Executive, role leads team providing deal-making services across scripted/unscripted deals in LATAM markets, multi-territory deals, reports to Head of International Business Affairs. That's about the role.
Responsibilities: "Key job responsibilities" bullet list: lead negotiations across above-the-line talent deals, development deals, production company agreements throughout LATAM; partner closely with Creative, Production, Marketing, Accounting, Finance, Tax and Legal; collaborate with business affairs executives across territories; support Legal Affairs in finalizing agreements and addressing production issues. Also mention manage high-volume workload, operate within corporate parameters, remain calm under pressure, build strong internal relationships, advise senior executives in time-sensitive situations, apply strategic thinking and risk analysis. Those are responsibilities.
Requirements: Basic Qualifications: qualified to practice law in at least 1 LATAM jurisdiction and/or US; fluent in Spanish and/or Portuguese; thorough understanding of LATAM entertainment industry customs and practices with multiple years’ experience in entertainment deal making, representing or working for a major scripted production company, studio or network.
Preferred Qualifications: deep understanding of various international scripted, unscripted and film media business models; trusted and established relationships with LATAM agents, lawyers and production companies; commercial and business affairs expertise; ability to understand and devise new business models; deep interest in technology and innovation; enthusiastic and track record of demonstrating sound judgment in ambiguous situations.
Skills: maybe we can extract from responsibilities: excellent drafting, communication, interpersonal and organizational skills required. Also mention ability to navigate business practices across diverse territories, strong track record working with LATAM agents, managers and outside counsel. Could put under Skills.
We need to decide sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Basic and Preferred?), Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have multiple sections. We must not create empty sections. We'll include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Basic Qualifications), Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications), Skills, Benefits, Pay. Ensure we don't duplicate content.
We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details: description, responsibilities list, basic qualifications, preferred qualifications, skills (drafting, communication, interpersonal, organizational, ability to navigate business practices, strong track record, etc.), benefits (health insurance list, 401(k) matching, paid time off, parental leave, sign-on payments, RSUs), pay (salary ranges for two locations). Also note location specifics? The posting includes location lines: USA, CA, Culver City - 206,600.00 - 279,600.00 USD annually; USA, FL, Miami - same. We'll include that under Pay.
We must not include Job ID, EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, application instructions, Los Angeles County specifics? The Los Angeles County applicants section includes job duties for this position: work safely..., adhere to standards..., communicate effectively..., follow all federal..., state..., local laws..., criminal history may have direct adverse relationship..., pursuant to Fair Chance Ordinance... This seems like boilerplate legal stuff; we should remove as per instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The Los Angeles County section is likely legal boilerplate; we should drop it. Also the accommodation link etc. Should drop.
Thus final HTML: sections with
headings, each followed by

Let's craft.
About the role: paragraph(s) from description: "Come build the future of entertainment with us. Do you want to help define the next generation of how and what Amazon customers are watching? Prime Video is one of the leading global streaming services, offering customers an extensive selection of movies, TV shows, and Amazon Originals in more than 240 countries and territories. We are looking for a Business Affairs Executive to join Amazon Studios’ Film and Television group. This role will lead the team providing deal-making services across all scripted and unscripted deals in our LATAM markets, as well as multi-territory deals, and will report directly to the Head of International Business Affairs."
That's about the role.
Responsibilities: list items:
- Lead negotiations across above-the-line talent deals (including writers, producers, directors and cast), development deals (including original scripts, book and format rights) and production company agreements throughout LATAM.
- Partner closely with Creative, Production, Marketing, Accounting, Finance, Tax and Legal, while collaborating with business affairs executives across territories to develop cross-territory solutions.
- Support Legal Affairs in finalizing agreements and addressing production issues.
- Manage a high-volume workload effectively, operate within corporate parameters, remain calm under pressure, build strong internal relationships, advise senior executives in time-sensitive situations, and apply strategic thinking and risk analysis to drive effective business solutions.
We could also include "The ideal candidate will have a strong track record working with LATAM agents, managers and outside counsel, with the ability to navigate business practices across diverse territories." That's more a requirement but could be under Responsibilities? It's under "Key job responsibilities" paragraph before list? Actually the text: "The ideal candidate will have a strong track record working with LATAM agents, managers and outside counsel, with the ability to navigate business practices across diverse territories. Substantial multi-territory commercial affairs experience, with a focus on development and growth opportunities, is required. A comprehensive understanding of international film and television agreements, development and production methodologies, market practices, guild regulations, contract law and intellectual property is essential. Excellent drafting, communication, interpersonal and organizational skills are required. The successful candidate will manage a high-volume workload effectively, operate within corporate parameters, remain calm under pressure, build strong internal relationships, advise senior executives in time-sensitive situations, and apply strategic thinking and risk analysis to drive effective business solutions."
Some of that is qualifications/skills. We'll split.

Better to have Skills section include: excellent drafting, communication, interpersonal and organizational skills; ability to navigate business practices across diverse territories; strong track record working with LATAM agents, managers and outside counsel.
We can keep the rest under Qualifications.
