&lt;p&gt;(full-time, permanent, Berlin or anywhere in Europe by arrangement)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;You knew the band before they sold out venues? Your playlists are ahead of the curve, not following it? Metal, rock and alternative aren’t just genres to you — they’re your home turf? Then this might be your stage.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Century Media is one of the world’s leading labels in heavy music. Now we’re looking for someone who’s not just part of the scene — but actively shaping what’s next.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What you’ll be doing&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Live where the scene happens: shows, festivals, online spaces – building real relationships with artists, managers and key players worldwide.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Spot what’s next before everyone else does – and turn potential into global careers.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Work hand-in-hand with label leadership and marketing to define where the label goes next, creatively and strategically.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Make deals happen: structure, negotiate and close agreements with confidence and credibility.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Keep your finger on the pulse – from underground buzz to breakout viral moments.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What you bring to the table&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Metal/rock/alternative isn’t just taste — it’s instinct. You know what matters before it trends.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;You move fast, think independently and take ownership. No ego, no waiting around.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Solid A&amp;amp;R experience and a network that actually opens doors.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;You thrive in chaos, speed and constant change – and know how to navigate it.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Fluent English, deal-ready. German? Nice to have, not a dealbreaker.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;You’re curious, connected and always on the move — physically and mentally.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What we offer&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;A dynamic, international environment at one of the leading companies in music and entertainment&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Opportunities to shape and grow artists on a global scale&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;A collaborative culture with passionate teams across markets&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Flexible working models and a modern workplace setup (depending on location)&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Competitive compensation and a range of local benefits tailored to your region&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Access to a strong global network and development opportunities within Sony Music&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How you apply&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Skip the formalities. We don’t need photos, personal background details or perfectly formatted applications.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Show us who you are.&lt;br&gt;What you’ve built.&lt;br&gt;What you hear that others don’t.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Send us something that represents you — CV, playlist, projects, ideas — whatever tells your story best.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sony Music sounds better with you&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Privacy Policy&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Please click here&amp;nbsp;to read our privacy policy for &lt;a href=&quot;https://static1.sme-static.com/files/Job%20Applicant%20Privacy%20Policy.pdf&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Germany&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.sonymusic.at/datenschutz/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Austria &lt;/a&gt;or &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.sonymusic.ch/datenschutz/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Switzerland &lt;/a&gt;before beginning the application process as you will need to agree to the terms of the policy before submitting your information.&lt;/p&gt;<p>Find <a href="https://www.arbeitnow.com">Jobs in Germany</a> on Arbeitnow</a>
