Woolf joined All3Media’s distribution business in January last year, moving over from BBCWW where he was VP of business development and digital media.

Macallister, at that time president and MD of BBCWW’s sales and distribution left a couple of months later and in January this year turned up at Zodiak’s distribution arm, replacing Matthew Frank as CEO.

Woolf will now report once more to Macallister with a remit to formulate Zodiak Rights’ future digital growth strategy, working with the sales teams to grow the company’s top-line digital revenues.

He will also be responsible for identifying new non-traditional revenue streams for key Zodiak Rights’ franchises as well heading up the newly established ‘Insight’ team.

“This is a key hire for Zodiak Rights and Gary will be absolutely instrumental in driving our digital business forward, as well as helping the company identify innovative new commercial opportunities as the market continues to evolve,” said Macallister.

The appointment comes in the same week parent company Zodiak Media hired Endemol global head of format acquisitions Grant Ross, putting him in charge of this area across the group, including oversight at Zodiak Rights.
