UK Music appoints Tom Kiehl as its new CEO
The UK Music board selected Kiehl after a recruitment process that drew over 130 applicants.
Kiehl has been the interim chief executive since September 2023, following Jamie Njoku-Goodwin’s departure to become the previous Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s director of strategy.
He assumes the role at a critical time for UK Music. With over two decades of experience in and around Westminster, Kiehl will lead the sector’s cross-party engagement with ministers, MPs, policymakers, and government officials.
Advancing from his interim position, Kiehl begins this month as chief executive of a sector contributing £6.7 billion to the UK economy and supporting 210,000 jobs. Recently, he led the UK Music team’s engagement with senior politicians, government officials, and key stakeholders ahead of the general election.
