Professional
Music Research Specialist — Disney Music Group
Recent. Featured in #015 on 14 September 2026.
This is not a composing job, but it runs on knowledge experienced composers use in their own work. The posting requires working knowledge of music publishing, performing rights, licensing and production and post-production for film, television and streaming. It prefers musical experience or the ability to recognise and distinguish musical elements, and some DAW experience. The role creates and finalises music cue sheets for productions from Disney's studios, researched from composer agreements, music licenses, PRO databases and music library portals. The bar most composers will need to check is two or more years of cue sheet preparation, along with experience of cue sheet software such as Soundmouse or RapidCue. The post is on site four days a week, with Fridays remote.
