Based out of London, he will jointly report to John Reston, UMPG’s EVP, Global Administration, and Simon Baker, GM, UMP Europe.

In addition to leading UMP’s European Administration organization, Greening’s expanded responsibilities will include leadership of UMP’s global copyright functions and collecting society engagement strategies.

“I’m thrilled to be continuing my work with John, Simon and UMPG’s global and regional executive team. Together, we are advancing our industry-leading administration services to songwriters and rightsholders, and maximizing their royalties through our innovative licensing arrangements and technologies,” added Greening, who’s been with the company since 2013.
