ZTVW hires for London office

Zodiak Television World (ZTVW) has hired a former Distraction and FBC executive as its London-based director of sales and acquisitions, following the appointment of Louise Juel as VP in Copenhagen earlier this week.

Tobi de Graaff will focus primarily on sales in the UK and German-speaking territories but will also acquire formats from all territories for prodcos within the Zodiak AB group, as well as acquiring formats and finished programmes for distribution by ZTVW.

The appointment follows that of Juel, formerly MD of MTV Mastiff, reported by C21 earlier this week.

ZTVW president Heather Stevenson said: “This is a very exciting time for us as we continue to grow across a number of territories. Louise and Tobi have substantial regional and production expertise that will be invaluable to the group as we build and develop our business.”
