Global live booking agency ROAM has appointed Maxie Gedge to a newly-created role as head of artist delivery.
Gedge has joined ROAM from Secretly Group, where, as European Project manager, she coordinated album campaigns for artists including Mitski and Phoebe Bridgers.
“The move reiterates ROAM’s ongoing commitment to world-class service and will position Maxie at the strategic heart of the agency’s UK and European operations team,” said a statement.
Gedge will assume responsibility for end-to-end delivery across the roster, including team growth and process development.
“During a period of rapid growth, the appointment also reflects ROAM's continued investment in internal infrastructure and resources, ensuring the agency can support its artist clients with consistency and care,” added the statement.
Olivia-Jane Ransley, director of operations, ROAM, said: “As we grow as a business, it's essential that the level of service artists receive from ROAM never dilutes. This role puts real ownership and structure behind that commitment, and we're delighted to have Maxie’s experience and expertise onboard – she brings exactly the care and instinct for artists that this team is built on.”
Gedge has programmed hundreds of shows and worked for festivals, venues, and talent development organisations across a range of genres.
