TRX Bolsters Client Services Team

LONDON: TRX, an online marketplace for secondary TV and video rights, has expanded its client services team through two executive appointments that cover the European region.

Karin Marelle, formerly of BBC Worldwide, has been tapped to service broadcast clients and rights holders across Western Europe and Scandinavia. In addition to BBC Worldwide, Marelle has worked at MTG/Viasat and Channel 4 International. She has experience acquiring content for a variety of channels and platforms, including free TV, pay TV and VOD services in the U.K. and internationally. She also acquired scripted and factual content for distribution across multiple markets as part of NBCUniversal’s international home entertainment business.

Zoe Wilson has been appointed to TRX’s client-services team to manage clients in Central and Eastern Europe. Wilson has eight years of experience working in the international TV market. She has held sales positions at Endemol Worldwide Distribution, Beyond International and all3media international. Both Marelle and Wilson will be based in TRX’s London office.

Matthew Frank, CEO of TRX, stated: “Zoe and Karin have extensive knowledge and experience of these key territories and are signing up buyers to TRX, particularly new entrant buyers who don’t travel to the key markets and are less well known to distributors.”

TRX is expected to begin rolling out its service within the next three months.
