Joey Sabella has been made Twentieth Century Fox Television Distribution (TCFTVD)’s VP of sales in the region. He will support the company’s pay TV and SVoD licensing business in the US as well as all television licensing negotiations across Latin America and Canada.

Sabella was most recently head of sales for the US and Lat Am at Canada’s eOne, where he oversaw distribution across TV, digital and mobile platforms. His previous roles include senior director of international sales and acquisitions at US distributor GRB Entertainment.

Evan Scheffel, executive VP of the Americas at TCFTVD, said he welcomed Sabella’s experience, which “aligns with our efforts to expand our business in these key markets.”

Sabella’s appointment follows that of of former Sony exec Yan-Jong Wong as TCFTVD Asia sales director earlier this year.
