JOB TITLE Assistant — Rights Management
DEPARTMENT Rights Management
ABOUT Y ROYALTIES The industry is complex. Y Royalties is a data-led and innovative workplace with a growing presence in the music rights space. We sit at the crossroads of music, data and finance — helping artists, labels, publishers and investors gain clarity, control and value across the entire music rights journey, from rights management and royalty auditing to accounting and transaction advisory.
Y Royalties was established in 2023 by Colin Young, Ben Marlow and Gary Groutage. We grew out of the royalties division at award-winning accountancy firm CC Young & Co, which marks nearly 30 years in the music industry this year. Our 2020 investment in data infrastructure now sits at the heart of every service — analysing royalties at the most granular level to surface trends, anomalies and opportunities, and to drive our catalogue valuations and due diligence.
