Music A&R

Commission-Based | Music Industry | Flexible Schedule

Rise Up Music Group is expanding and looking for motivated A&Rs to help us continue scaling what we’re building — an affordable, professional artist management platform for independent artists.

This is a remote hybrid role:

Most work can be done from anywhere
Local, in-person networking is required
Ideal for self-starters who are natural connectors

What This Role Is

This is not a call-center job and not a traditional sales role.

As an A&R with Rise Up Music Group, your primary responsibility is to:

Network with independent artists in your local area
Start genuine conversations
Identify artists who are serious about their career
Introduce them to our management services

If you’re the type of person who:

Naturally starts conversations
Knows how to build relationships
Is already tapped into your local music scene

This role will feel natural.

Work Setup (Remote Hybrid)

Majority of work is remote
Requires:
Reliable internet
Laptop
Phone
Networking must be done in person locally, including:
Studios
Events
Showcases
Creative spaces
Artist communities

This is not an online-only position.

Who This Is Perfect For

Self-motivated go-getters
Natural networkers
People already active in their local music scene
Parents who need a flexible work-from-home opportunity
Individuals who want income that grows over time
Those who prefer results-based income over hourly limits

Consistency matters more than experience.

Compensation

Commission-based (1099)
Earn $2400 signing bonus per artist signed (annually) + up to 10% of gross revenue
Subscription-based model
Income compounds over time as your artist base grows
No cap on earnings

A&Rs see meaningful income growth after their first 60–90 days as consistency, referrals, and networking compound.

What We’re Looking For

Strong communication skills
Comfortable approaching people in real life
Consistent effort
Professional demeanor
Ability to represent a reputable brand
Willingness to learn our process

We train the system — you bring the hustle.
