Alex Cook

Alex previously worked as Head of Film and Senior Manager International Development and Talent Discovery for BAFTA. Whilst there, she broke new ground by spearheading BAFTA in Asia, developing an operational budget and financial plan for growth at zero impact to the bottom line; and introducing the flagship talent programme BREAKTHROUGH, now sponsored by Netflix, and rolled out across the UK, USA, China and India. Prior to this you would find her on the Music Festival circuit managing VIP and Press areas for bands including Pearl Jam, the Killers and the Foo Fighters. She is the first to admit that she sounds cooler than she is.
