Broadband TV News: Magnus Brooke to run ITV group strategy

Story from Broadband TV News:

ITV is to combine its strategy and policy teams under Magnus Brooke, the current director of policy and regulation, who has been promoted to also take board responsibility for group strategy.

Brooke moves to a new role of Group Director of Strategy, Policy and Regulation continuing to sit on the ITV plc Management Board reporting to Carolyn McCall, ITV plc CEO.

The changes follow the decision of Dan Colton the current Director of Strategy and Transformation to take up a new role outside of ITV.

“I’d like to thank Dan for his huge contribution to ITV,” said Carolyn McCall. “I’m really looking forward to working closely with Magnus in his new role. Magnus will oversee our outstanding policy and strategy teams as we drive the digital modernisation of the business while delivering enormous cultural, economic and democratic value as a Public Service Broadcaster in a rapidly changing environment.”

As part of the changes, Samir Ahmad has been promoted to Director of Group Strategy to lead ITV’s strategy team and Gareth Barr is promoted to Director of Policy and Regulation both reporting to Brooke.
