She will report to Steve North, the broadcaster\u2019s genre general manager for comedy and entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>Dave is one of the biggest non-public-service channels in the U.K., reaching 20 million viewers every month.<\/p>\n<p>Cunningham is tasked with growing the channel\u2019s viewership and continuing to establish its reputation as the home of brand-new, award-winning comedy entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>North said: \u201cCherie has been a key member of the Dave team for several years and I\u2019m incredibly pleased she is now taking on the channel director role. Her exceptional leadership skills, coupled with her extensive marketing knowledge and understanding of how to grow brands make her perfectly positioned to take Dave to the next stage of its journey.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cunningham added: \u201cWhat a role! I\u2019m so thrilled and energized to be taking on this position. Dave is a challenger brand and I\u2019m committed to ensuring we surprise and excite audiences over the coming months and years by supplying non-stop creativity, content and innovation. We\u2019ve had an incredible success rate with new and returning UKTV original commissions, we\u2019ve landed brilliant purpose-driven work with CALM, and as a brand, Dave has bags of personality.
