News Image
Channel 4 has promoted Nick Lee to Head of Series Acquisitions.

Reporting into the Director of Commercial Affairs, the newly created role will be responsible for the creation and roll out, deal terms and delivery of the strategy for all acquired series, scripted and non-scripted, across Channel 4's portfolio of linear and non-linear channels. Working closely with the commissioning teams across the channel, Lee will also play a key role in any pre-production acquisitions and co-production opportunities alongside the relevant Head of Commissioning.

Lee said: "The opportunity to build further on Channel 4's reputation for bringing the best and most fitting of the global TV market to UK audiences is a really gratifying prospect. Our acquisitions strategy, across the channel portfolio and All 4, is evolving just as the supply lines in the industry are evolving and the scope afforded by this role in terms of co-production deals, pre-buys, licensing opportunities and partnerships is incredibly exciting."
