BMG EVP Global Corporate Communications Steve Redmond is to step down from the company after 12 years.
The highly-regarded communications exec and media advisor is credited with shaping the company’s image and helped define its positioning over a period during which its revenues have more than quadrupled to become one of the largest international music companies outside the three majors.
BMG says that a successor will be announced shortly.
During his tenure, Redmond led communications around more than 100 acquisitions and championed the company’s fairness initiatives towards artists and songwriters alongside former CEO Hartwig Masuch.
Most recently, he has led internal and external communications around the handover to new CEO Thomas Coesfeld and the company’s new strategy.
