Entry Level Music A&R Jobs in Miami, FL (NOW HIRING)

JZAVIEA Records is an artist development and entertainment company dedicated to discovering, developing, and supporting talented musicians across multiple genres. We believe great artists are built through strong development, professional guidance, strategic marketing, and long-term career planning—not simply by social media numbers.

Your responsibility is to identify artists with exceptional potential, evaluate their readiness for development, and present qualified prospects to company leadership for further review.
