Stephen Bryan leaves Warner Music for SoundCloud
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 31 July 2014
Warner Music Group digital exec Stephen Bryan has announced that he is departing the major after seventeen years to take up a new role at SoundCloud.
Currently WMG’s Executive Vice President Of Digital Strategy And Business Development, Bryan will become SoundCloud’s new Senior Vice President Of Business Development And Strategy. So that’s a shortening of his job title by one whole word. Not sure if that had anything to do with the move.
Bryan told Billboard: “[The decision to move] had nothing to with WMG. When I joined, it was the very beginning of the digital transition – the reason why I stayed there so long is that I’ve always felt a deep passion to navigate this incredible transition to digital platforms. I think that change will accelerate in the near future, and a company like SoundCloud enables me to continue that”.
