Assistant Artist Manager information

What are Assistant Artist Managers?

Assistant Artist Managers are professionals who support artist managers in handling the business and administrative aspects of an artist's career. Their responsibilities often include scheduling, coordinating events, managing communications, and assisting with marketing or promotional activities. They act as a liaison between the artist, management, and other industry professionals, ensuring that the artist's daily needs and long-term goals are met efficiently. This role is crucial for keeping the artist's career organized and running smoothly, allowing the artist to focus on their creative work.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an Assistant Artist Manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Assistant Artist Manager, you need a solid understanding of the music or entertainment industry, exceptional organizational skills, and often a bachelor's degree in business, arts management, or a related field. Familiarity with industry-standard scheduling software, CRM tools, and social media platforms is highly beneficial. Strong interpersonal skills, discretion, and proactive problem-solving make someone stand out in this role. These abilities are crucial for efficiently managing artists' schedules, building industry relationships, and supporting the artist's career growth.

How does an Assistant Artist Manager typically support both the artist and the lead manager in day-to-day operations?

As an Assistant Artist Manager, you'll often act as a crucial link between the artist, the lead manager, and various third parties such as venues, agents, and publicists. Your daily responsibilities may include scheduling meetings, coordinating travel and logistics, managing communications, and assisting with contract administration. You'll also help monitor social media activity, organize promotional events, and ensure that the artist's needs are met during tours or appearances. This role requires strong organizational skills, adaptability, and the ability to handle confidential information, as you'll frequently juggle multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

What is the difference between Assistant Artist Manager vs Artist Manager?

AspectAssistant Artist ManagerArtist Manager
CredentialsRelevant experience, industry knowledge, possibly a degree in arts or businessMore extensive experience, proven track record in artist management
Work EnvironmentSupports the artist manager, works closely with artists and teamLeads the management, oversees career development and negotiations
Industry UsageCommonly used as entry-level or supporting role in entertainment and arts industriesSenior role responsible for strategic career planning

The Assistant Artist Manager typically supports the Artist Manager by handling administrative tasks, coordinating schedules, and assisting with day-to-day operations. The Artist Manager holds a more senior position, responsible for overall career strategy, negotiations, and client relationships. Both roles require industry knowledge, but the Assistant Artist Manager is often an entry point into artist management careers.

Job description

We are UMG, the Universal Music Group. We are the world's leading music company. In everything we do, we are committed to artistry, innovation and entrepreneurship. We own and operate a broad array of businesses engaged in recorded music, music publishing, merchandising, and audiovisual content in more than 60 countries. We identify and develop recording artists and songwriters, and we produce, distribute and promote the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful music to delight and entertain fans around the world.
How We LEAD:
Famehouse is seeking a proven music marketing and merchandise executive to lead Account Management for artists and labels across the REPUBLIC Collective rosters, including Republic Records, Mercury, Island, Def Jam, MCA, Universal, and Uptown Records artists.
Based in New York, this leader will own senior artist and label relationships, guide long-term roster planning, and help build world-class merchandise and D2C businesses across eCommerce, tour, retail, and licensing.
The SVP will be accountable for delivering both creative and commercial goals while strengthening trust in Famehouse at every touchpoint. This requires a culturally fluent, artist-first leader with deep credibility in music marketing and merchandise, strong executive presence, high taste level, and the ability to inspire confidence across artist teams, label leadership, and internal partners.
Success in this role also requires exceptional people leadership: mentoring and motivating a high-performing Account Management team, fostering collaboration and accountability, and setting ego aside in service of the team, the artists we support, and the fans.
How You'll CREATE:
Artist, Label & Roster Leadership
  • Lead Account Management across REPUBLIC Collective roster artists, overseeing a team of Account Managers in close alignment with wider Famehouse Accounts leadership.
  • Serve as the senior relationship lead for key label stakeholders and priority artist teams, building trusted, long-term partnerships.
  • Own strategic planning across artist rosters, ensuring merchandise and D2C plans are aligned with release cycles, touring, fan moments, and artist brand priorities.
  • Ensure Famehouse delivers exceptional artist, label, and fan experiences across every touchpoint.

Strategy, Growth & Commercial Performance
  • Define and drive the growth of artist merchandise and D2C businesses across eCommerce, tour, retail, and licensing.
  • Guide the development of best-in-class 12-month calendar strategies that balance creative ambition, commercial opportunity, and operational feasibility.
  • Oversee roster performance, ensuring the business is on track to meet or exceed revenue and growth targets without compromising margin.
  • 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.
  • Champion a culture of energy, enthusiasm, and idea-selling, helping artists and labels feel inspired by Famehouse's approach to merchandise and D2C.
  • Partner closely with REPUBLIC Collective label leadership, marketing, and creative teams to align on artist priorities and growth opportunities.

Cross-Functional Execution & Operating Standards
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Campaign Management, Commercial Strategy, Product, Creative, Marketing, and Operations to ensure seamless execution.
  • Establish and reinforce best practices, processes, and standards for client management, strategic planning, and cross-functional collaboration.

Team Leadership & Culture
  • Mentor, motivate, and develop Account Managers, creating clarity, accountability, and a culture of high performance.
  • Model low-ego, team-first leadership that prioritizes collaboration, trust, and excellence in service of artists, labels, fans, and Famehouse.

What You'll BRING:
The ideal candidate will bring one of two highly relevant backgrounds: senior label marketing experience with deep artist and manager relationships, or senior account / brand management experience within a music merchandise, D2C, or artist commerce company.
  • 12+ years of relevant music industry experience across label marketing, artist merchandise, D2C, brand management, or artist commerce.
  • 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.
  • Familiarity with eCommerce, D2C, artist merchandise, physical music, product development, or merchandise production strongly preferred.
  • Comfort working nights and weekends as needed for priority campaigns, launches, and artist moments.
