Warner Music UK yesterday announced the appointment of Mike Allen to the job of VP International Marketing. He takes over from Julian Wright, who will leave the major later this year.

Warner UK boss Christian Tattersfield, who Allen will report to, told CMU: “This has been a great year for many of our UK acts, with Paolo, Muse, and Plan B all enjoying their biggest international successes to date. I am delighted to welcome Mike on board at such an exciting time. I believe he has the credentials to continue the upward trajectory of our UK acts, both new and established, and the great new releases we have coming up. I look forward to working with him”.

Allen himself added: “I’m extremely impressed by the company’s commitment to being the best home for outstanding UK talent; taking that talent to the next level and beyond internationally is the mission and the opportunity. I look forward to bringing the broadened perspective I’ve gained as an independent in the service of artist management and labels to Christian’s team and artist roster”.
