Y Royalties was established in 2023 by Colin Young, Ben Marlow and Gary Groutage. Offering services in Royalties Data, Rights Management, Audit and Transaction Services.

Y Royalties started from the Royalties division at Award Winning Accountancy firm, CC Young & Co, which has nearly 30 years of experience in the Music Industry this year. The success of this division along with our knowledge and experience gained over the years has enabled the birth of Y Royalties.

Our commitment to innovation led us to invest significantly in our data infrastructure in 2020. Our data warehouse now sits at the heart of all our services, enabling us to analyse royalties at the most granular level, highlighting trends, anomalies and opportunities in our client’s royalty income.

In the Rights Management department, we manage, track, and reconcile incoming royalty statements while overseeing all aspects of client publishing administration, including society affiliations, work registrations, and catalogue maintenance. We continuously maintain and enhance royalty tracking processes, addressing and resolving data queries from both internal teams and clients.

Why join us?

Y Royalties is a data-led, relaxed and innovative workplace with a growing presence in the music rights space.

You will learn about the flow of royalties, pitfalls of data, facets of different rights types, how to read publishing / record deals and everything needed to assist clients throughout the deal process and beyond.

You will be working closely with experts in the field who will help to boost your personal development and enable you to contribute to the growth of an expanding, dynamic team.

What you’ll be doing
