Welcome to Dealmakers with Alex Segal

Alex was appointed InterTalent’s Managing Director in 2020 after 8 years at the talent agency, making him the youngest MD in the company’s 30+ year history. He continues to represent his existing client base across the entertainment industry as well as oversee the agency’s day-to-day operations, creative vision and leads on its acquisitions & partnerships.

Coming from a family of agents, he made the move into talent management at Curtis Brown in 2007 before spending nearly four years at ARG (2009-2012), where he worked with their globally recognised stars.

He joined InterTalent in 2012 and has negotiated more than £40m in talent deals across all areas of the industry, as well as creating new and valuable IP for clients.

Since becoming MD, Alex has introduced Comedy, Digital, Live Events, Gaming, Sports & Brand Partnerships divisions alongside bolstering its longstanding and highly acclaimed Scripted & Unscripted businesses. Under his tenure, the company has more than tripled its turnover and won Best Agency For New Talent at Edinburgh TV Festival’s New Voice Awards in 2022.
