Studiocanal Appoints Sales Head Anna Marsh As UK MD

Studiocanal has appointed its International Distribution EVP, Anna Marsh, as UK MD. Marsh will take up her new London-based position on March 1, 2019 and will report to Nicola Shindler who was appointed CEO of Studiocanal UK in September 2018. Marsh will continue to run the firm’s international sales from London, reporting on this front to Studiocanal CEO Didier Lupfer.

The firm announced last October that their Australia and New Zealand CEO Elizabeth Trotman would be relocating to London to assume the UK MD role but she was ultimately unable to take up the position due to a visa issue.
