SONY U.K.'S FIRST DIVERSITY DIRECTOR

5/4/21

Sony Music U.K. has appointed Charlotte Edgeworth as its first Director of Diversity, Inclusion and Social Impact.

Chairman and CEO Jason Iley said she will reinforce the label's efforts "to ensure our company truly reflects the diversity of our employees and artists. … Her expertise will continue to drive us forward in our commitment to diversity, inclusion and social impact.”

In her new role, Edgeworth will spearhead company strategies to continue fostering an equitable workplace, working closely with HR and Tiffany R. Warren, EVP, Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer at Sony Music Group. She has played a key role in helping to establish the label's Social Justice Fund and will now collaborate with the U.K. Social Justice board and Sony Music Group’s EVP of Philanthropy and Social Impact, Towalame Austin.

With more than 20 years of experience championing diversity and promoting responsible business practices across a number of industries, for the past five years she has led and managed a corporate social responsibility business, where she specialized in strategic grantmaking.
