Contract Role — Potential for Long-Term Engagement
About the Company
We are an established, globally active music company working across artist management, publishing, A&R, and music supervision. Our roster includes Grammy Award–winning artists as well as emerging talent and next-generation producers across the U.S., Latin America, and Europe.
We are seeking a highly organized Administrative Assistant with a genuine interest in global music micro-genres (such as phonk, dembow, dancehall, baile funk, Afro-drill, rally house, edit culture, etc.). While this is not an A&R-driven role, understanding these spaces will help you support research, outreach, and day-to-day operations with greater context and effectiveness.
This position starts as a short-term contract, with the potential to transition into a long-term role based on performance.
Administrative Support
• Maintain and organize databases, spreadsheets, project trackers, contact lists, and internal documents.
• Assist with scheduling, follow-ups, and general communication tasks.
• Prepare meeting notes, summaries, and clear internal documentation.
• Support asset management, metadata organization, and file handling across digital platforms.
Research & Insights
• Conduct structured research on creators, dancers, choreographers, influencers, and key players within global micro-genre communities.
• Track trends across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Spotify, and SoundCloud as they relate to emerging genres and creators.
• Compile findings into organized spreadsheets, briefs, and lists for internal use.
• Gather data related to rights, publishing, credits, and catalog metadata as assigned.
Outreach & Communication Support
• Assist with DM/email outreach to creators, dancers, studio contacts, editors, and other partners.
• Maintain organized logs of communication and follow-ups.
• Help coordinate early-stage relationship building across multiple markets.
Project Coordination
• Support small marketing or research initiatives as assigned.
• Track deadlines, deliverables, and progress for team projects.
• Assist with cross-time-zone communication and logistics.
Qualifications
Required
• Strong organizational and administrative skills with excellent attention to detail.
• Clear written and verbal communication ability.
• Proficiency with Google Sheets / Excel, Google Docs, and general productivity tools.
• Ability to work independently, manage multiple priorities, and maintain accurate documentation.
• Comfort with fast-moving environments and occasional ambiguity.
Preferred
• Personal or professional familiarity with micro-genres (phonk, dembow, Afro-drill, baile funk, dancehall, etc.).
• Experience in a research, assistant, coordination, or administrative role (music or entertainment a plus).
• Awareness of social platforms (TikTok, Instagram, Spotify, YouTube) and youth-driven digital culture.
• Basic familiarity with music publishing or artist management (not required but helpful).
• Spanish speaking a plus but not required.
