Lead and support Artist & Label Business Reviews at the executive level, providing strategic insights and forward-looking recommendations. Creative Storytelling & Go-to-Market Excellence Elevate the quality of artist proposals, go-to-market plans, and business storytelling, ensuring the team delivers compelling, high-impact strategies.

Proven track record leading senior artist, manager, and/or label relationships with credibility, trust, and strong executive presence. Deep understanding of artist development, release cycles, touring, fan engagement, and how merchandise / D2C strategies support broader artist goals. Experience developing and selling through strategic marketing, merchandise, or commerce plans for high-priority artists or campaigns. Strong commercial instincts, with the ability to balance creative ambition, artist priorities, revenue growth, margin, and operational feasibility. Demonstrated experience leading, mentoring, and developing high-performing teams. High taste level, strong creative judgment, and the ability to elevate artist proposals, positioning, and storytelling. Low-ego, highly collaborative leadership style with a strong client-service mindset. Exceptional communication, presentation, and stakeholder management skills. Highly organized, analytical, and adaptable in a fast-paced, artist- and label-driven environment.
