With a focus on The ATS Team\u2019s slate of original IP, Griffiths will work between Manchester and the company\u2019s London, Los Angeles and Lisbon offices to continue developing its international formats.<\/p>\n<p>The exec will work alongside Shayna Waldman, ATS&#8217;s development and production executive, and will report into Danny Sanz, managing director and COO.<\/p>\n<p>Griffiths commented: \u201cHaving worked closely with The ATS Team for a number of years, I\u2019ve seen firsthand the skills, expertise and dedication of its team to delivering world class shows around the world. For a start, not enough people in the industry know that The ATS Team is responsible for the production of nearly 90 (yes, 90!) seasons of <em>Ninja Warrior<\/em> around the world. If that does not scream of a company with quality and delivery of production embedded in its DNA, then nothing does. The talent they have is outstanding and my ambition is to come on board, foster further relationships with co-production partners, and both develop and get commissioned the brilliant original IP on its slate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sanz said: \u201cBringing Nicola on board to The ATS Team will be a jewel in our crown\u2014we&#8217;ve worked with her for years and know she\u2019s one of the most experienced heads of department in the business. Plus, we genuinely love working with her and feel completely honored that this is the next step for her after being with the brilliant folks at Workerbee.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nicola Griffiths, formerly head of production at Workerbee, has joined The ATS Team as senior VP of production.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3087,"featured_media":22199,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[10169,10170,5104],"class_list":["post-22198","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-nicola-griffiths","tag-the-ats-team","tag-workerbee","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The ATS Team Brings on Workerbee Exec - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/the-ats-team-brings-on-workerbee-exec\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"The ATS Team Brings on Workerbee Exec - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Nicola Griffiths, formerly head of production at Workerbee, has joined The ATS Team as senior VP of production.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/the-ats-team-brings-on-workerbee-exec\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-10-24T07:00:35+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-10-24T07:15:20+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/10\/ATS-Griffiths-1024.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"640\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"394\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Alexa Alfano\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Alexa Alfano\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/the-ats-team-brings-on-workerbee-exec\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/the-ats-team-brings-on-workerbee-exec\/\",\"name\":\"The ATS Team Brings on Workerbee Exec - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-10-24T07:00:35+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-10-24T07:15:20+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/2653b97e27eaf76a4713c75f0e821dad\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/the-ats-team-brings-on-workerbee-exec\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/the-ats-team-brings-on-workerbee-exec\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/the-ats-team-brings-on-workerbee-exec\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"The ATS Team Brings on Workerbee Exec\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/2653b97e27eaf76a4713c75f0e821dad\",\"name\":\"Alexa Alfano\",\"description\":\"Alexa Alfano is associate editor at World Screen.
