CBS Corporation and Viacom have announced additional senior management appointments for the merged ViacomCBS, including Alex Berkett as executive VP of corporate development and strategy.

Chris McCarthy and David Nevins are both adding new channels to their remit under the proposed ViacomCBS merger structure, while Kent Alterman and Sarah Levy exit the company.

CBS and Viacom have revealed the senior leadership appointments across ViacomCBS’ revenue lines, with Armando Nuñez to serve as chairman of global distribution and chief content licensing officer and David Lynn to oversee the combined company’s international media networks.

President and CEO Robert Bakish says he is confident that ViacomCBS’s ability to own and distribute content across the entire media ecosystem—in-house and third-party platforms, linear and streaming, free TV and pay—ensures the company’s wellbeing whatever changes the future may hold.

Anthony DiClemente has been named to the position of executive VP of investor relations at ViacomCBS, effective upon closing of the deal to combine CBS and Viacom.
