BERLIN (CelebrityAccess) — BMG announced that Maximilian Kolb has decided to step down from his role as Executive Vice President of Repertoire & Marketing Continental Europe after more than a decade at the label.
Kolb first joined BMG in 2012 as an A&R manager and rose through the ranks of the music company until he was named Managing Director GSA in 2019, followed by a promotion to his current role in 2021.
During his tenure at BMG, he played a significant role in the acquisitions of German Schlager label Telamo and rights packages from Tina Turner, Jean-Michel Jarre, Martin Solveig, Nena (band), Cro, and Eurodance acts including Snap!, Haddaway and Dr. Alban.
He will be succeeded by Alistair Norbury, President Repertoire & Marketing U.K. & APAC, on an interim basis until the end of 2024, BMG said.
“The music industry is undergoing one of its most revolutionary periods, and after 12 years at BMG, it’s time for a new chapter and to continue to ensure that artists and songwriters can make the most of the changes we’re experiencing. I owe the company a lot, and I want to thank everyone who has been a part of this journey. We have accomplished a great deal together and I am particularly proud of the European team and where it is today,” Kolb said.
“I would like to thank Maximilian for his extraordinary dedication and contributions to BMG over the years. His leadership and vision have been instrumental in the growth and success of our GSA and Continental Europe operations. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors,” added BMG CEO Thomas Coesfeld.
