• Ensure accurate digital metadata to support best practices in audience reporting, rights compliance, and maximizing rights catalogue value, engagement, and revenue.
• Drive workflow improvements to streamline operations, enhance programming accuracy, and optimize ratings analysis. Provide digital audience data for Sports content as needed (OD, web, and social).
