We’re thrilled to announce that Alex Cook will spearhead Green Man Gaming’s new arm, as Executive Vice President of Commercial Acquisition. In this newly created role, Alex will sit at the very top of our content funnel—scouting, negotiating, and closing deals for new games and IP across our Store, Publishing, Distribution, and Marketing businesses.
“Bringing someone of Alex’s calibre into Green Man Gaming was a strategic leap for us,” says Paul Sulyok, CEO. “The market is moving faster than ever, and great IP is the fuel that powers our growth engine. Alex’s blend of sales savvy, creative instinct, and global network will let us seize opportunities earlier, unlock fresh revenue streams, and accelerate the next phase of the Green Man journey.”
A Track Record Built on Hits
Alex carries two decades of video-game deal-making under his belt. His résumé spans senior roles at Electronic Arts (EA)—where he led Codemasters sales where he led Codemasters sales before joining the New Ventures team as part of the acquisition—as well as Wargaming, Jagex and GAME Entertainment, Activision, Acclaim, Maxis, and consulting stints for dozens of PC and console studios. Whether steering AAA launches or cultivating indie gems, he’s earned a reputation for turning promising concepts into commercial success.
Alex shares. “Green Man Gaming’s multi-channel ecosystem—storefront, publisher, distributor, and marketer—creates a unique, end-to-end pathway for great games. My goal is to fill that pipeline with IP that surprises players and delivers sustainable returns for our partners.”
What the Role Means for Studios
Alex will be scouting emerging studios, franchises, and tech with breakout potential, and then coordinating internal publishing, marketing, and distribution teams around each acquisition. A core focus will be creating partnerships that sets every game up for long-term success.
Once the ink is dry, stewardship will shift to our Publishing & Growth divisions, ensuring each title enjoys lifetime discoverability and revenue optimisation.
Alex’s appointment underscores Green Man Gaming’s commitment to bigger partnerships, broader catalogues, and bolder ideas.
