Alex Pumfrey, who last week announced she was stepping down as CEO of The Film and TV Charity, is joining ITV in June as the broadcaster's director of strategic partnerships.

She will develop the broadcaster's relationships across national media players (such as BBC, BT, Sky and Virgin Media) and international tech giants (such as Apple, Amazon and Samsung), to ensure that ITV is positioned to succeed in a rapidly transforming ecosystem .

Commenting on her new role Pumfrey said: I am thrilled to be joining ITV at such a key moment in the delivery of its 2026 vision to become a leader in UK streaming and an expanding global force in content. I'm looking forward to working with our strategic partners to create shared value for the long term, and supporting the wide industry ecosystem in which we all operate.

ITV understands that its success is contingent on building trust-based and strategically-aligned relationships that deliver for both ITV and our partners. My aims are to develop the positive partnerships we already have, maximise the value of these for both parties, and embed a culture of partnering at ITV.

Martin Goswami, group strategic partnerships and distribution director at ITV added: Alex has exceptional experience in working with broadcasters and platforms and is perfectly placed to drive ITV's strategic partnership activity. ITV connects with millions of people every day and this role plays a vital part in ensuring we do that as well as possible as a key part of achieving our More Than TV Strategy. I'm delighted that Alex is joining us at a really exciting time for ITV and look forward to welcoming her.
