This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working with large datasets, has deep knowledge of music royalties, and can build strong client relationships. You’ll work closely with Client Management and Services teams to deliver a world-class client experience.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Serve as the primary contact for a portfolio of music clients, ensuring their needs are met with accuracy and care

• Use Excel (and other tools) to analyze data, troubleshoot discrepancies, and generate insightful reporting
• Work collaboratively with internal teams to ensure smooth client onboarding and continuous service improvements
• Proactively identify and resolve data-related issues, asking thoughtful questions to clarify and understand client needs
• Provide product feedback to help shape Curve’s evolving platform
• Build strong, trust-based relationships with clients through clear communication and proactive support

Who You Are:

• Strong understanding of music royalties and the music industry value chain
• Excellent analytical skills and a passion for working with large, complex datasets
• Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, XLOOKUPs, nested formulas, data cleaning and transformation)
• Highly numerate with a methodical and accurate approach to problem-solving
• Clear, concise communicator with strong written and verbal communication skills
• Confident asking questions, seeking clarity, and advocating for client needs
• Self-motivated, self-managed, organized, and comfortable working independently in a remote team
• A collaborative team player who values openness, feedback, and growth
