Jonathan Abraham joins Toronto-based Portfolio as director of international sales and acquisitions after just under two years with Zuru in Hong Kong as its international sales and marketing manager.

Abraham will be responsible for selling Portfolio’s original programmes internationally and acquiring third-party content for its catalogue.

He replaces outgoing head of distribution Linda Kahn, who is leaving the company after three years at the end of the month to focus on her consultancy firm Linda Kahn Media KKC.

Abraham, who has also held roles at publisher Brunico Communications, 9 Story Media Group and Shaw Media, will report to Joy Rosen, CEO and co-founder of Portfolio Entertainment.

Portfolio produces and distributes kids’, factual and unscripted entertainment and is known for shows including The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That!, Freaktown, and factual series For the Love of Dog.
