Paramount promotes Pamela Kaufman

August 1, 2022 10.20 Europe/London By Chris Dziadul

Pamela Kaufman, president of Global Consumer Products and experiences for Paramount, has been appointed president and CEO of International Markets, Global Consumer Products & Experiences, effective immediately.

In what is a newly created position, she will report to Bob Bakish, president and CEO of Paramount. Meanwhile, Raffaele Annecchino has decided to leave the company in his role as president and CEO of Paramount International Networks, Studios and Streaming.

In her expanded role, Kaufman will be responsible for driving the continued growth of Paramount’s international business and ensuring the strength of the company’s international operations across six continents, including broadcast and cable networks, streaming and studios, and the company’s commercial capabilities. She will work closely with Paramount’s international leadership team, as well as the global content and streaming organisation to do so, including helping to guide the continued international rollout of Paramount+ and Pluto TV. Kaufman will maintain her current responsibilities overseeing the global multi-billion-dollar consumer products and experiences organisation.

Commenting on the appointment, Bakish said: “Pam has been the strategic force behind growing and expanding some of the most iconic global franchises and properties in entertainment.
“She is a proven and trusted, visionary leader who has transformed our consumer products organisation by driving innovation and operating as a global business. Pam is uniquely qualified to lead our international business as we expand and diversify our worldwide footprint and accelerate Paramount’s transformation to operating with a truly global approach”.

He added: “I want to extend my thanks to Raffaele Annecchino for the critical role he has played in building Paramount’s international business and expanding our global footprint. I am grateful for the dedication he has shown throughout his 25 years at Paramount and wish him well in the future”.

Kaufman said: “I am honoured to take on this role at such a pivotal time for Paramount’s international business.

“I know firsthand the global strength of our brand portfolio, and I look forward to working with Bob and the incredible International team as we continue pursuing our global growth strategy, investing in key partnerships, furthering our push into mobile and digital platforms in new markets, and operating as one team globally”.

Kaufman assumed the role of president of Global Consumer Products and Experiences for Paramount in November 2021. Prior to this, she served as president of Consumer Products & CMO for Nickelodeon.

Before joining Nickelodeon in 1997, Kaufman held positions at Turner International, Equity Marketing and Grey Advertising.
