What I do at ITV is I provide, as commercial research manager, support for our commercial sales effort here and that means providing research support and analysis for the sales teams here in order for them to put the best case possible for developing revenues for ITV. Working at ITV is great because we have a company that not only has commercial interests, if you like, in terms of advertising, but it's also got studio interests - it's a dynamic company today, very forward looking and it has, shall I say the spirit of enterprise and it's a lot of talented and interesting people here, and it's constant variety and challenges and every day is different.

My role at ITV is director of operations for legal and regulatory compliance. When we talk about compliance here at ITV we mean compliance for all laws, all regulations, but also codes of practices such as the code of practice of Ofcom or other regulators like PhonepayPlus or the Gambling Commission, so it's quite wide. So I look after the operational side of it which means I look at all the processed, also the systems we use to make sure we deliver compliance programmes.

My career path has been, first I came to this country about 16 years ago, I basically trained as a solicitor in the City at Freshfields, I spent quite a few years there, then I went to New York and did a course on the business of entertainment and when I came back I got the job of head of legal in a small production company and then after doing that I was head-hunted by ITV and I joined ITV about 6 years ago and I've been working here since then.
