STOCKHOLM: Modern Times Group (MTG) has appointed Jette Nygaard-Andersen as the executive VP of the group’s Nordic pay-TV broadcast operations, alongside a number of other changes within the senior management team.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Anna Settman, who has been the executive VP of the group’s Nordic pay-TV broadcasting operations since March 2013, has decided to leave the group. <\/span><\/span>Nygaard-Andersen takes up the role with immediate effect. Nygaard-Andersen has worked for MTG since 2003 and has been CEO of Viasat Denmark since 2011. Nygaard-Andersen also served as the acting CEO of the Nordic pay-TV operations between October 2012 and March 2013. She will continue as the CEO of Viasat Denmark until a successor is in place. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, Jonas Karlén has been made the COO of the Nordic pay-TV broadcasting operation. Karlén has been serving as the CEO of Viasat Sweden since October 2011. He will continue in this role, while adding his new Nordic COO duties to his current remit. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Peter Nørrelund has been tapped as MTG head of sport, taking on overall responsibility for the group’s sports production, broadcasting and channel operations. Nørrelund has been with MTG since 2003, having been the CEO of the group’s Danish sports operations. Each local country head of sport in the Nordic region will now report to Nørrelund. Nørrelund will also continue in his current role. <\/span><\/span>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Jørgen Madsen Lindemann, the president and CEO of MTG, commented: “These changes will further strengthen our Nordic set-up, and we are fortunate to be able to draw on such a strong pool of internal management talent. Each of these appointments is a passionate, skilled and proven leader who understands the huge opportunities that lie ahead for us, as we shape the future of entertainment by providing relevant local digital products and services that excite and enrich daily lives. We are structuring the organization to ensure that we can fully leverage the investments that we are making in our content, platforms, channels and services. We have never had such a strong offering and this will only get stronger during the year as we build towards our Olympics coverage in early 2014.”
