Roderick Thomson joins Hazard Chase
Hazard Chase is pleased to announce that Roderick “Rog” Thomson will join the company in January 2009 as a director and artist manager, based in the company’s London office. Educated at Winchester College and Balliol College Oxford, Rog worked for Victor Hochauser Ltd before joining Van Walsum Management in 1981. During a long and successful period with the company he worked in both artist management and touring, specialising in the Asian market in particular, and served on the board of the International Artist Managers’ Association.
James Brown, Managing Director of Hazard Chase comments “I have known Rog for some years, initially through our mutual involvement with IAMA. I am delighted to bring someone of such experience and quality to Hazard Chase, where I believe he will play a key role in the continuing development of the company. The support and understanding that he has received from Van Walsum Management in pursuing this new phase of his career, reflects both the respect and affection in which he is held there and the excellent relationship between our two companies”.
