Tim Carter to Lead U.K. Unscripted at ITV Studios

Tim Carter has been tapped to succeed Angela Jain as managing director of U.K. unscripted at ITV Studios.

Carter is currently CEO of ITV Studios’ MultiStory Media and Twofour. He takes up the role in the summer, overseeing 11 unscripted labels in the U.K. and reporting to Julian Bellamy, managing director of ITV Studios.

Carter’s remit includes overall P&L responsibility for the U.K. unscripted group, with the heads of each label (among them Potato, MultiStory Media, Plimsoll and Oxford Scientific Films) reporting to him.

Bellamy commented: “Angela has been a fantastic leader in ITV Studios for eight years, with a remit that’s spanned some of the U.K.’s biggest and best factual and entertainment shows, including I’m a Celebrity, Love Island, The Chase, The Voice, 24 Hours in A&E, Squid Game: The Challenge and many, many others. Angela’s sure footed editorial judgement, creative eye and commitment has played a key role in the success of ITV Studios. We’ll all miss her hugely, but really look forward to working with her at Disney.”

Bellamy continued: “Tim’s success during his tenure at MultiStory and Twofour speaks for itself. His wealth of experience and knowledge in the unscripted market made him the natural successor to Angela. I’ve no doubt that ITV Studios’ U.K. unscripted business will go from strength to strength under his leadership.”

Carter added: “The ITV Studios’ non-scripted slate reads like a roll-call of the nation’s favorite shows and the breadth and depth of creative and production talent across the group is staggering. I look forward to building on our reputation as the natural home for the brightest and the best as we forge the entertainment of the future.”
