Studio Lambert Hires Head of Scripted Production

Bolstering its drama team, Studio Lambert has appointed Julie Clark to the new role of head of scripted production.

Clark was previously at Left Bank Pictures, where she oversaw the production of Outlander, Electric Dreams, The Replacement and The Halcyon. She will report to Sue Hogg, head of drama, and Jo Crawley, who has been promoted from head of production to director of production.

“We’re expecting to ramp up our drama production over the next couple of years,” said CEO Stephen Lambert, “so I’m delighted Julie has agreed to take on the challenge of ensuring we are able to deliver high quality shows efficiently. She has an amazing track record and knows Sue very well having worked with her at the BBC on award-winning shows like The Go-Between and The C-Word.”

“This re-organization of the production side of our business means we are well placed to expand our output in both scripted and unscripted,” explained Lambert. “Jo and I have worked together for more than 20 years and she has played a key role in so many of our shows. And Steve has been doing a brilliant job since he joined us, most recently on The Circle, our big new show for Channel 4.”
