Naked Entertainment Hires Director of Development

LONDON: Naked Entertainment has appointed Tom O’Brien as director of development, reporting to CEO Simon Andreae.

O’Brien will supervise the creation and development of all new content. He will build on Naked Entertainment’s presence in the non-scripted genre. Previously, O’Brien managed development teams at a number of leading U.K. indies, including Remarkable Television, Twofour Broadcast and Electric Ray.

Andreae said: “Tom is one of the most creative and highly respected development heads in the business. We’re privileged he’s chosen to join us and are looking forward to working with him on creating a range of high-concept, high-impact, high-quality shows that excite broadcasters and delight viewers.”

O’Brien added: “Naked Entertainment has big plans and creative instinct at its heart, so when the opportunity came for me to join Simon and his team it was too tempting to turn down. It’s fantastic to be joining at such an exciting time and I’m thrilled to be helping to take the company into its next phase of development.”
