Must have:

3+ years of relevant professional experience, with at least 2 years in a role with clear ownership and responsibility. Product management experience is preferred, but we also welcome backgrounds in music licensing, rights, catalogue, partnerships or commercial roles.
A working understanding of the music licensing world. You know what a publisher, a PRO and a mechanical licence are, you have seen how rights affect a product, and you are curious about the rest. We will teach you the depth.
You play piano, or you have learned it far enough to remember exactly what was hard. You understand the learner's journey from the inside: what motivates beginners, what makes them quit, what keeps them coming back.
Strong partner and stakeholder management skills. You are comfortable working directly with external partners and taking part in negotiations. You are also highly reliable when it comes to contractual obligations and recurring deadlines — when something needs to land on time, you make sure it does.
Strong analytical and commercial skills. You are comfortable with cohort data, experimentation and commercial modelling. You can build the case for an investment in a spreadsheet, understand what the data is telling you and defend the assumptions behind it.
Product management skills. You are comfortable with prioritisation, balancing user and business needs, and turning them into clear decisions and outcomes. You are outcome-oriented and entrepreneurial: you take ownership of results, not tasks.
AI fluency and curiosity. You are confident in using AI/LLM tools to support data analysis, modelling, reporting, presentations and day-to-day product work, with a strong willingness to experiment and rapidly develop new AI-enabled ways of working.
Excellent written and spoken English.

Strong plus:

Hands-on experience in music rights, publishing, licensing, royalties or catalogue work.
Content or catalogue product experience at a streaming, media, audiobook or games company.
Strong product discovery skills. You go from user problem to hypothesis to test to decision, using qualitative and quantitative methods.
Experience negotiating with suppliers or rights holders.
Financial modelling depth.
German language skills in addition to English.
Music tech, e-learning, gaming or consumer entertainment background.
