Polydor president extends remit

David Joseph, co-president of Polydor, has had his remit extended to Universal Classics & Jazz and Universal Music TV, becoming President of Universal Music Operations.

David Joseph, co-President of Universal Music division Polydor, has had his remit extended to take in Universal Classics & Jazz, Universal Music TV and, erm, Universal Music TV - that is to say the UMTV compilations unit and Universal Music UK's new TV production set up. In his new role Joseph will be know as President of Universal Music Operations, which is a bit dull sounding, surely President of UCJUMTVUMTV would be more interesting.

Anyway, confirming all this, Universal Music International boss Lucian Grainge told reporters: "Since David joined me at Polydor in 1998, he has continued to grow into an exceptional record man. He will make a great impact and contribution to the businesses within the UK group that he now has additional responsibility for managing. He thoroughly deserves this promotion."
