Role Overview
Sony Music's Product, Design, Engineering & Global Operations (PDEGO) team is looking for a Product Manager to join our RoyaltyShare product team in our London office. You'll help shape the future of the platforms that power one of Sony Music's most critical business capabilities—processing, calculating, and distributing royalties to artists, songwriters, publishers, and partners around the world.
Working closely with Engineering, Product Design, Finance, Royalty Operations, and business stakeholders, you'll help modernize complex workflows, simplify business processes, and deliver scalable product solutions that improve accuracy, efficiency, and transparency across our royalty ecosystem.
What You'll Do
- Partner with Engineering and Design to define and deliver the product roadmap for Sony Music's RoyaltyShare platform
- Translate complex business, financial, and operational requirements into clear product requirements and user stories
- Own and prioritize the product backlog, balancing business value, technical complexity, and platform health
- Lead Agile ceremonies and work closely with engineering teams throughout the product development lifecycle
- Build strong relationships with stakeholders across Royalty Operations, Finance, Product, and Engineering to understand pain points and identify opportunities for improvement
- Gather user feedback and operational insights to continuously refine product direction
- Help define success metrics and monitor product performance using quantitative and qualitative KPIs
- Participate in product releases, rollout planning, change management, and adoption activities
- Clearly communicate priorities, roadmap updates, and product decisions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Support the modernization of legacy royalty systems through incremental product improvements and platform enhancements
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
