Production and distribution group Argonon has hired Laura Bessell-Martin as its COO.
Bessell-Martin’s previous experience includes stints at Shed Media and UK pay TV operator BSkyB.
The COO role is a new one at Argonon.
The company said it is focused on both strategic acquisitions and commercial exploitation of IP across all areas of the business and that Bessell-Martin will work with all of its divisional bosses.
She will report to CEO James Burstall. He said: “Laura’s extensive experience in both international markets and the M&A arena will be invaluable as we move forward with our acquisition strategy and development of IP across the group.”
