CxO Products UK is an operational team working across some of Sky’s most popular On Demand areas such as Home pages, Kids, Catch Up TV and Sky Cinema. We work closely with merchandising teams to ensure that Sky customers are served the very best content recommendations across all our platforms (Sky Glass, Sky Stream, Sky Q, Sky Go and Sky+). As we work with imagery, synopses and other metadata, accuracy and attention to detail are vital for the role, as is an ability to work well with other teams.

• Working with editorial teams to implement their strategy within various content management systems. 

• Building and maintaining relationships with other key parts of the organisation such as Media Management, Marketing, Stills, Linear scheduling teams, Compliance and Platform Control. 

• Reviewing the user interface to ensure content is working correctly and ensuring that the best possible images and synopses are being surfaced. 

• Working alongside technical teams to troubleshoot issues and liaising with them on system improvements. 

• Having the imagination, foresight and understanding of competitor activity to challenge and change the way On Demand works, as well as giving ideas for improvements to the proposition. 

• Excellent attention to detail. 

• Comprehensive knowledge of VOD and a passion for content. 

• The ability to manage workloads effectively, with the ability to prioritise work when urgent amendments are needed. 

• A talent for working with others.
