Senior Music Sync Licensing Manager

We are building a curated music licensing platform connecting high-quality, unsigned and independent artists with commercial opportunities across film, television, advertising, gaming, and digital media.

Our model sits between a self-serve licensing marketplace and a high-value sync business.

• On one side, we offer accessible, tiered licensing for creators and commercial users
• On the other, we are expanding into bespoke, higher-value sync deals and direct buyer partnerships

Unlike traditional stock libraries, we focus on real artists and culturally relevant music, not volume-based catalogue licensing.
