The Art of Music Tour is a fast-growing international project that blends cinematic electronic music, drone filmmaking, and breathtaking natural landscapes. We perform and film open-air concerts in iconic outdoor locations worldwide, blending music, storytelling, and visual art into powerful cultural experiences. Past performances have taken place in Sweden, Croatia, Portugal, Spain, Hungary, Greece and more. The 2027 edition will expand across Europe and beyond. As we celebrate our sixth year, we are building a high-performance global team that thrives on clarity, ownership, and creativity. We are now hiring a Permits Coordinator with senior-level communication, negotiation, and administrative capability to secure the required authorisations across tourism boards, municipalities, cultural ministries, and land-use authorities. This is not an event assistant role. This is a permitting and negotiation role with public institutions (municipalities, heritage, land use, tourism). If you have not secured permits before, do not apply. This is a mission-critical role at the centre of a global expansion. If you’re proactive, professional, and passionate about bringing music and film to extraordinary locations, we’d love to hear from you.

• Build a clear map of the approval chain for each location.
• Maintain structured communication records.
• Ensure all documents, liability requirements, safety considerations, and policies are respected. 4. Cross-Country Adaptation
