Presto Music is looking for an enthusiastic music fan to join our team as a Jazz Product Coordinator. The role will support the day-to-day running and development of our online jazz department, helping to ensure that new releases across CD, vinyl, downloads and streaming are presented accurately and attractively on our website and in our apps.
