Paula McHarg was most recently senior sales manager for Italy, CEE, CIS and the Middle East at KI, the production and distribution arm of Israel’s Keshet Media Group.

Danna Stern, MD of Yes Studios, said: “Paula brings with her a wide range of experience across format and finished tape sales and has worked in a diverse array of territories.

“She will play a key role as Yes Studios continues to grow and partner with producers, channels and platforms worldwide.”

The appointment comes ahead of the summer launch of two original dramas from Yes Studios : Just For Today, which won the Grand Jury Prize at SeriesMania earlier this year, and crime drama Magpie.

In addition to the drama line-up, Yes Studios will unveil a kids’ and family slate building on the track record of the company’s live-action children’s titles.
