Contract Management Intern Review

The daily tasks involved drafting various legal documents such as Artwork Release Letters and Non Disclosure Agreements, and assisting the team in drafting larger letters such as License Agreements and Contractual Amendments. Additionally, working on various weekly contract metrics report and ad-hoc report requests, through using online data systems. Numerous ongoing projects such as audit, closing contracts, system testing, etc., and any ad hoc requests from the CMC or Legal teams.

I learnt may new skills including key communication skills both online, through numerous emails and calls with stakeholders and licensee contacts, and in person, through working and liaising on tasks with my team, and learning to adapt communication styles to work best with different personalities. I also developed my legal and business understanding, through delving into various legal documents and business reports, allowing me to expand my commercial awareness.

I was given full responsibility over many tasks throughout the placements, particularly with intern specific tasks like ARL/NDAs, audit and closing contract projects, and the set weekly reports.

I had bi-weekly check ins with my line manager, where I was able to discuss any work or non-work related issues that may need raising. Also allowing me to reflect on my progress, and receive feedback on any tasks or projects I have worked on.

Particularly, within the Contract Management Team, there is a great sense of community and a positive atmosphere, with weekly team meetings and various team days and events to participate in throughout the year.

I enjoyed my placement so much! It is an amazing company to work for, giving you great insights into the industry, not just through the work but through so many other amazing CSR initiatives, charity events, and various screenings and premiers. It has a great working culture and is a motivating and fun office environment.
