Alleyne was born in Bridgetown, Barbados. At the age of three she moved to Walthamstow with her parents and later attended the nearby Leyton Manor School and Leyton Senior High School. She graduated from Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge (1985–88) with a BA in Philosophy and began working as a financial adviser for Royal Life. A year later she joined Jazz FM's publicity department and, in her two years at the station, proceeded to become a trainee producer.

In 1991, Alleyne set up Somethin' Else, a music publicity business (named after the jazz album by Cannonball Adderley), with former colleagues Jez Nelson and Chris Philips. The company produced original content for the BBC and commercial radio. As CEO, Alleyne led many projects herself, including the development of Radio Music Shop, the world's first retail radio station. By 2008, Somethin’ Else was, according to The Independent, ‘the biggest syndicator of radio programmes in the UK, outside of the BBC, distributing shows to more than 200 radio stations in 65 countries’.

She has been a judge for the Precious Awards, which celebrate the entrepreneurial achievements of black women, and the Sony Awards.
