About the role

NewsBreak is building ReelBee, an open short-drama distribution platform where any qualified creator or studio can self-publish, earn a transparent revenue share, and get real US audience insights. This is a CEO-sponsored, company-level initiative. As Head of Content & Supply you will own the supply side: what content gets on the platform, on what terms, and how we know it works. This role works across the US and China; we are hiring in parallel in the SF Bay Area (Mountain View) and Beijing.

What you'll do

  • Own the content supply strategy across PGC (Chinese studios and AI studios, overseas platform catalogs, US creators) and UGC; be accountable for catalog scale, quality and return
  • Define selection criteria and the content tagging taxonomy; co-build with the data team a "score → test → feedback" title-selection system calibrated by real performance data (CTR, completion, paid conversion, per-title return)
  • Build and manage 50+ supplier and rights-holder relationships; lead acquisition negotiations (buyout / minimum guarantee / rev-share), contracts and launch; secure premiere and exclusivity windows; avoid over-exposed catalog titles
  • Creator fund and creator ecosystem (phase 2): once the first wave of China-side supply is live, work with the US Creator Relations lead to design a fund, partnership models and revenue-share rules for US-based creators
  • Track US / China / global charts and audience trends; publish insights for internal teams and creators on what performs with our audience
  • Partner with Growth on scaling strategy for titles that win in testing; run post-mortems on hits and misses
  • Hire and lead content operations, supplier BD and creator relations

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years in short drama, web fiction or digital video, including 2+ years in content acquisition, distribution or content strategy at an overseas short-drama platform (ReelShort, DramaBox, ShortMax, NetShort, GoodShort, FlexTV, Melolo) or a leading Chinese platform
  • Established China-side supply network: existing relationships with studios, AI studios or rights holders, able to start first deals within 30 days
  • Verifiable hit judgment: titles you personally selected or signed that performed, with the data to show why
  • Data-driven: comfortable with completion, conversion and per-title ROI as the basis for decisions, and with having your calls tested and revised
  • Strong negotiation and deal-structuring skills across buyout, MG and rev-share models
  • Professional fluency in English and Mandarin; can read US audience data and feedback
  • Belief in the open-platform model: transparency and data attract better supply than exclusivity

Nice to have

  • Creator fund / creator program / MCN experience
  • Familiarity with AI short-drama production and the leading AI studios; ability to judge AI-drama quality and cost
  • Ties to US film schools, independent production or writer communities
  • TikTok/YouTube short-drama channel or revenue-share operations experience
  • 2+ years managing a team
  • Deep familiarity with US mainstream audience tastes and cultural context

Pay may vary based on a number of factors including job-related skills, level, experience, geographic location and relevant education or training. At NewsBreak, we design our overall rewards package to attract top talents. Depending on the position, the role may also be eligible for discretionary bonus and options. Your recruiter can share more details during the hiring process.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
