THE TEAM
The Cue Sheets and Music Administration team is part of Netflix’s Music Business & Legal organization within the Data, Tech, and Rights division. We are responsible for tracking and managing all music used across Netflix content globally, ensuring accurate cue sheet reporting and compliance with CMO obligations.
