• Supporting playlist research and competitor analysis
• Assisting in the development of mood boards, creative references, and sonic direction
• Maintaining databases and updating project timelines
• Providing general support across A&R and creative initiatives

What We’re Looking For:
• Deep curiosity and knowledge of current music trends, especially within pop and electronic spaces
• Finger on the pulse of new artists, scenes, and cultural moments
• Great organizational skills and attention to detail
• A creative mindset and passion for artist development
• Prior experience in music or entertainment a plus, but not required

If you live and breathe music discovery, we’d love to hear from you.
This is an unpaid internship that can be used toward college credit.
