His agenda includes artificial intelligence (AI) policy, creators\u2019 rights and sustained government funding for music.<\/p>\n<p>The UK music publishers\u2019 trade body confirmed the appointment following a board vote. King will lead his first board meeting on <strong>22 October<\/strong>, succeeding <strong>Paulette Long OBE<\/strong>, who remains a board director.<\/p>\n<h2>Publishing and board experience<\/h2>\n<p>King has led Faber Music since <strong>1999<\/strong>, giving him more than 25 years of publishing leadership experience across classical, film, television, pop and printed music.<\/p>\n<p>During his tenure, Faber Music has expanded through acquisitions including UK publisher and composer agency <strong>Manners McDade<\/strong> and the print music business of classical publisher <strong>Edition Peters<\/strong> in <strong>2023<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>King served as an MPA director from 2002 to 2019 and returned to the board in 2022. His other board experience includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>18 years as a PRS director, ending in 2022.<\/li>\n<li>Nine years as a PRS Foundation director, ending in 2024.<\/li>\n<li>A directorship at PML since its establishment in 2012.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>AI policy and music funding<\/h2>\n<p>King intends to bring members together around shared publishing priorities and use his experience to support the association\u2019s advocacy. His policy and membership agenda includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Engaging with government on an AI framework that supports innovation while protecting creativity, creators\u2019 rights and likeness.<\/li>\n<li>Seeking greater transparency around AI training data and clear labelling of AI-generated music so listeners can identify it.<\/li>\n<li>Pressing for the government\u2019s recently announced <strong>three-year, \u00a345 million Plan for Music<\/strong>, called <em>Turn It Up<\/em>, to become a sustained, long-term commitment.<\/li>\n<li>Improving communication between the MPA and its members.<\/li>\n<li>Encouraging publishers to share best practice on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>King said he wanted to build on Long\u2019s work with the executive team and strengthen publishers\u2019 representation on issues affecting members. He welcomed the Plan for Music and the new National Plan for Music Education, while calling for both to deliver lasting change.<\/p>\n<h2>Working with Peter Jackson<\/h2>\n<p>King will work with <strong>Peter Jackson<\/strong>, who became MPA managing director in <strong>July 2026<\/strong>. Jackson reports to MPA Group chief executive <strong>Paul Clements<\/strong> and oversees the association\u2019s daily operations and team.<\/p>\n<p>Jackson\u2019s remit includes strengthening the MPA\u2019s representation of publishers and its value to members. He said he would draw on the board\u2019s experience, listen to publishers of all sizes and develop the association\u2019s impact in the UK and internationally.<\/p>\n<p>Jackson has 25 years of experience across music and the creative industries, including record labels, publishing, management, film and advertising.<\/p>\n<h2>Jackson\u2019s industry background<\/h2>\n<p>Jackson began his career in synchronisation licensing at <strong>EMI<\/strong> and <strong>Sanctuary Records<\/strong>. In 2005, he moved into production music and established the UK office of US music library <strong>Non-Stop Music<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>He stayed after <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/interspacemusic.com\/blog\/guy-moot-joins-nmpa-board-after-becoming-warner-chappell-sole-chair\/\">Warner Chappell<\/a><\/strong> acquired the business in 2007, helping develop the UK operation into Warner\u2019s European production music division, with additional offices in Stockholm, Hamburg and Paris.<\/p>\n<p>Before joining the MPA, Jackson held several roles in visual effects, including at Oscar-winning creative studio <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.framestore.com\/\">Framestore<\/a><\/strong>, where his responsibilities covered mergers and acquisitions, new ventures and grant funding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Faber Music chief executive Richard King will chair the Music Publishers Association for three years, with priorities including AI
