While at MTV I managed a team of content producers, editors and designers that produced all of the digital media content for MTV and its affiliate channels in the UK (MTV Base, MTV2, MTV Dance, MTV Hits, VH1, VH1 Classic and TMF). Responsibilities included 9 websites, Overdrive, Mobile VOD and Mobile TV channels. We also produced and delivered the mobile TV channels for Nickelodeon and Paramount Comedy. I managed all editorial content, production and delivery as well as commissioning and producing original content for all of these platforms. I oversaw the launch of Overdrive in the UK and the Mobile TV services, both of which won awards in 2006.
