The firm’s CEO, Jean-Philippe Randisi, will now oversee Zodiak Kids Studios, which encompasses all of Zodiak Kids’ production in the UK and France.

Gwen Hughes will report to him in her new role of chief operating officer of Zodiak Kids Studios.

Hughes, whose previous remit was MD of Zodiak Kids Studios UK, will oversee all production and operational matters in the UK and France. The transition will take place later this year.

She will work alongside Eryk Casemiro, chief creative officer of Zodiak Kids Studios, who heads development teams in both territories, and BenoÎt Runel, MD of Zodiak Kids Studios in France.

The new comes after Carrington was named head of children’s and education at ABC earlier today.

Zodiak Kids Studios continues to sit alongside Zodiak Kids’ distribution and consumer products teams.

“It has been a real pleasure and a privilege to work with Michael. A great deal has been achieved since he joined, making Zodiak Kids a more efficient and forward-looking kids’ specialist with international clout,” said Randisi.

“With Gwen on the operational side and Eryk Casemiro on the creative side, we have very capable hands and brains to ensure Zodiak Kids’ success.”
