ITV appoints Bartlett as managing director of global content
ITV has appointed Lee Bartlett as managing director of its global content division.
He replaces Dawn Airey, who resigned in April to take up the post of chief executive of Five.
Bartlett joined the global content division as chief operating officer at the start of April this year and has been acting as interim managing director since Airey left.
In his new role, he will be responsible for overseeing ITV’s UK and international production and distribution businesses, including the broadcaster’s production arm, ITV Productions.
Bartlett said: “ITV is home to some of the world’s most outstanding creative content. By taking advantage of the rapid technological and creative changes that are happening and bringing my international experience to bear, I believe I can deliver growth to the business and win new audiences for that creative content all around the world.”
