Off The Fence Appoints Head Of Business Affairs

Leading content company Off the Fence has appointed Adam Binns as its new Head of Business Affairs. The role is newly created due to the company’s recent growth. Adam will be responsible for managing all internal and external rights and business affairs. He will also play a lead role in the negotiation and contracting of programming for Off the Fence and in expanding even further the company’s already healthy co-production work.
Binns joins Off the Fence after seven years at ITV, where he initially worked on sports rights deals before going on to manage all programme negotiations as Head of Business Affairs for the broadcaster. With over a decade of experience in the broadcasting industry, Binns is ideally suited to this international role where he will advise on all programming policy.
Darrel James, General Manager, Off the Fence said: "We are delighted to have Adam working with us, he has a great deal of experience to bring to the table. This is a very exciting time for us at Off the Fence, with the growth in programming out of our Bristol, Singapore and Cape Town offices continuing from strength to strength."
Binns said: "Off the Fence is a highly respected, agile and dynamic company with a fine production heritage. I’m looking forward to working with the whole team to drive the business forward."
