TL;DR: We are looking for an experienced salesperson who will help us with getting new clients and at the same time manage our small client acquisition team. We manage worldwide music rights for library writers with whom you will communicate daily. Prior knowledge of the library music industry or music rights is welcome but not a necessity.
Long story: Who are we?
Collecting money for music royalties can be a heavy administrative burden so we are helping production music writers to get the royalties they are due, so they can focus on what they do best – make music.
We launched NRG almost five years ago as a spinoff of our other well-established company Studio Fontána – the leading production music provider in central Europe. We quickly became one of the best royalties collection agencies; we represent more than 1000 musicians worldwide and collect millions of euros for their TV placements.
Whom are we looking for?
We are looking for someone who will be our primary contact with our potential clients in the Client Manager position. Your main focus will be communicating with musicians, explaining our service and the value we can bring them.
You will be in daily touch with artists worldwide and play a central part in our clients’ experience. At the same time, you will lead our small acquisition team, providing reports directly to the CEO and ensuring we are reaching our targets.
