ITVS Global Entertainment names COO

ITV Studios has appointed a Dentsu Aegis Network exec as chief operating officer at distribution division ITV Studios Global Entertainment (ITVSGE).

Arjan Pomper

Arjan Pomper joins ITVSGE from the Belgian arm of UK-based media and communication company Dentsu Aegis Network, where he has been CEO for the past two years.

Pomper’s appointment completes the senior management team for ITVSGE following October’s reorganisation, which saw Kim Dingler appointed chief commercial officer and Maarten Meijs named president. Pomper will report to Meijs.

Meijs said: “I’m delighted Arjan is joining us – he will be a great addition to our organisation. In line with the reorganisation of ITV Studios’ international distribution and commercial business, the appointment of a COO allows us to further capitalise on the opportunity of a growing content marketplace, and to drive more value from our award-winning content.”
