Banijay Rights, the global distribution arm of Banijay Entertainment, has announced the appointment of Lottie Wilson as Vice President for its operations across Australia and New Zealand.
Based in Sydney, Wilson is responsible for executing Banijay Rights' sales strategy across Australia and New Zealand, where she represents the leading distributor's 205 000+ hour-strong catalogue with a focus on finished tape exploitation, says Banijay Rights.
Wilson was formerly Head of Acquisitions and Branded Services at BBC Studios, where she set direction and strategy across the company's Australian and New Zealand branded services. She has held senior acquisition roles at the company since 2015, says the distributor.
Starting in July, Wilson will report to Lyle Bettson-Barker, Senior Vice President for Australia and New Zealand at Banijay Rights. "With more than 15 years' experience in the international television industry, Lottie is one of those rare executives with ample experience across sales, acquisitions and branded services. We're in no doubt she will be an incredible addition to our global sales team as we look to grow our business in both Australia and New Zealand even further," says Bettson-Barker.
Wilson concludes, "I have long admired Banijay Rights' innovative approach to business so to join its industry-renowned team is a real privilege. I look forward to exploring new opportunities across our ever-expanding catalogue in these two key markets."
