Dorothy Hui promoted to SVP of Digital and Audience Development at Sony Music UK’s 4th Floor Creative | Music Business Worldwide

Sony Music UK has promoted Dorothy Hui to Senior Vice President of Digital and Audience Development at 4th Floor Creative, the company’s in-house creative agency.

In Hui’s new role, she will continue to lead the company’s Digital and Audience Development team – comprised of Insight and Analytics, CRM and Owned Platforms – and will expand her remit to facilitate cross-functional opportunities within Gaming & eSports and Voice Technology.

Hui will continue to report directly to Cassandra Gracey, President of 4th Floor Creative.

Hui joined Sony Music from Roc Nation in 2015 as Vice President of Digital and has helped the company maximise digital platforms such as TikTok, Instagram and Facebook while focussing on driving artists’ owned audiences.

She has also steered Sony Music’s learning agenda and launched Digital Uncovered – a series of learning and development workshops to highlight key digital topics impacting the wider business.

Hui spearheaded the 4th Floor Creative Spark Innovation Programme, designed to launch and bring to life experimental and “market-first” ideas.

“Dorothy is world class and I love learning from her and working with her every day.”

The programme has instigated projects including the streaming data-driven merchandise collection for British band Bring Me the Horizon, voice app projects including an Amazon Alexa Skill for Paloma Faith Paloma’s Bedtime, and pan-Sony projects such as 4th Floor Creative’s collaboration with PlayStation Worldwide Studios on Tom Grennan VR.

Hui also served as Chair of the Digital Committee for the BRIT Awards from 2017-2019.

Before joining Sony Music UK, Hui was based in New York City and led the digital marketing team at Roc Nation, where she oversaw global digital strategy for artists including Rihanna, Shakira, and J. Cole.

“4th Floor Creative is well positioned to work with Sony Music UK labels and deliver best-in-class services for our artists to build and engage fanbases through an insight-led approach to our digital strategies.”
