Royalties Manager | Entertainment & Gaming

£60,000 to £70,000 | Hybrid or Remote

I am working with one of the most iconic and instantly recognisable names in interactive entertainment and gaming, home to some of the biggest brands in the industry, on a really interesting hire. They are looking for someone with genuine royalties or licensing finance experience who is ready to own the process end to end, rather than just report the numbers up.

The role covers:

  • Owning the end-to-end preparation, review and submission of royalty statements to licensors, developers and publishers
  • Receiving, validating and invoicing royalty statements and payments coming in from licensees
  • Interpreting contract terms including revenue shares, deductions and recoupment positions, and translating them into accurate financial calculations
  • Working closely with accounting, legal and business development teams to resolve open items
  • Overseeing royalty processes across multiple studios globally, and helping standardise how it's done across the group

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.

  • A naturally audit-minded approach, someone who won't let a number that looks wrong go unchecked

The package includes flexible hybrid or fully remote working, enhanced benefits and real scope to shape a growing global function. But honestly the bigger draw here is the brand itself and the level of ownership on offer, this isn't a back office reporting role.

Location: Newcastle, but genuinely open to hybrid or fully remote.
