ALEX EAST
ACCOUNT MANAGER
I joined Footprint in November 2020 after graduating from the University of Oxford, where I studied Music. As Music Rights Coordinator, I supported the Footprint team with issues related to licence negotiation, contract management and compliance, including handling all reporting for our clients. Since being promoted to Account Manager in April 2023, I have taken on increased responsibilities for licence negotiations, compliance, and client-facing work across the business whilst working closely with fantastic clients such as Viaplay Group and Marquee TV and with collecting societies across Europe, North America and Australia.
Outside of work, I am a dedicated trombonist, having spent many years playing with ensembles such as the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain, the Oxford University Orchestra and various jazz groups. Connecting and working with people across the world is a passion of mine and I am grateful that my musical background has provided the opportunity to travel to locations such as Japan, Bangladesh, the USA, Thailand and much of Europe. When I’m not playing the trombone, I enjoy trying to pot balls in the snooker club, attending live music events, and catching up with friends over a pint in the pub.
