Fremantle Promotes Andrea Scrosati

Andrea Scrosati has been promoted at Fremantle, expanding his current role as group COO with the additional remit of CEO for continental Europe.

Scrosati adds responsibility for Fremantle’s businesses in Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, the Nordics and Poland. These markets join Italy, France, Spain, Portugal and Israel, which already report to Scrosati.

Scrosati will continue to oversee Fremantle global drama, group M&A, strategy, marketing and communications, as well as the newly established global documentaries unit.

Jennifer Mullin, Fremantle Group CEO, to whom Scrosati reports, said: “We have an exciting and ambitious growth plan in place to capitalize on the enormous global appetite for great content—across all genres, platforms and regions. This is an extremely exciting time for all at Fremantle and the organizational changes outlined mean that we are well poised to respond to the many opportunities that await us. I would like to thank Andrea for taking on this wider role. He has been exceptional in helping us grow the business over the last three years, and I am confident he will bring the same strategic vision, creativity and passion to his new role.”

Scrosati said: “Firstly, I want to thank Jennifer for her continued support and true leadership. Thanks to her vision, Fremantle is enjoying unprecedented growth across all content genres and new business models. I look forward to working closely with my colleagues in the Netherlands, Belgium, the Nordics, Poland and Germany, along with the wider Fremantle team, as we look to continue to grow the business and shape an exciting next chapter for the company. The creativity, talent and innovation that runs through the entire Fremantle DNA is extraordinary and a unique engine for growth.”
