Creative Artists Agency (CAA) is the leading entertainment and sports agency, with global expertise in filmed and live entertainment, digital media, publishing, sponsorship sales and endorsements, licensing, media finance, consumer investing, fashion, trademark licensing, and philanthropy. Distinguished by its culture of collaboration and exceptional client service, CAA’s diverse workforce identifies, innovates, and amplifies opportunities for the people and organizations that shape culture and inspire the world.

Position Summary:
CAA is seeking a Junior Analyst to support a Contract Administration Executive in the Books and Publishing department. The position is part of a small team that works to ensure accuracy in Publisher reporting of sales and royalty earnings on behalf of clients and Agent colleagues and to use this same reporting for insights into project performance and trend analysis.

For individuals who demonstrate strong analytical capabilities, business judgment, and leadership potential, the position can serve as a foundation for expanded responsibilities and long-term career development within CAA, but it is not intended for candidates pursuing a traditional literary Agent career path.
