Kieron Cooke joins the Rayfield Allied team as Director

19 January 2026

We are delighted to announce that Keiron Cooke has joined Rayfield Allied as our newest Director.

Keiron was previously Associate Director at Askonas Holt where he worked for more than twenty years, collaborating with a roster of exceptional singers and creatives. Having previously worked as a Curator at the Britten-Pears Library, and in the Artistic Administration department at Glyndebourne, he brings with him decades of experience in the classical music industry and an impressive artistic legacy - particularly in the worlds of opera and theatre. We are incredibly fortunate to have Keiron on board.

Keiron says: “I am thrilled to be joining the team at Rayfield Allied! I have admired the company’s work for many years, it’s impressive reach and admirable style, and applaud its commitment to its artists, and industry partners. Rayfield Allied’s roster of talented creatives is testament to a talented team, which is forward-thinking, discerning, ambitious and innovative. I am excited to add my voice to theirs, and to contribute towards the company’s future.”

And from Ben Rayfield, managing director: “I have known Keiron since his time at Glyndebourne and we both joined the artist management world at around the same time, now over 20 years ago. I’m delighted that he’s joining our team at Rayfield Allied as he brings not only a huge amount of experience and expertise, but he also shares our ethos of a very personal style of management built on long-term relationships."

Welcome to the team Keiron!
