The Board of Zinc Media is pleased to announce, following a
comprehensive search, the appointment of Christopher Satterthwaite

Christopher has a wealth of experience in the media and

during his tenure. Christopher is currently chairman of AIM-quoted
technology group Access Intelligence and Spacehive, a private
technology start-up, and was a non-executive director of Centuar
Media plc from 2007 to 2015. Christopher has an MA from Oxford
University in Modern History and in 2017 was awarded an C.B.E. for
services to the arts.
Chief Executive Mark Browning said:
"I am delighted that Chris has agreed to take on this role. He
has operated in media at the highest level. He brings with him a
wealth of experience in leading creative businesses and delivering
shareholder value. Over the coming months we will be refreshing our
strategy as we look to drive profitability across all our business
and set ourselves up for future growth. I'd like to place on record
the Company's enormous thanks to Peter during his eight years of
service to Zinc Media. We wish him all the best in his retirement
from the Board."
Christopher Satterthwaite commented:
"I am really pleased to be joining the Zinc board and working
with Mark and the team, at this crucial stage in the Company's
development. The television industry is a rapidly changing
marketplace presenting a range of exciting opportunies for Zinc
Media, as one of the UK's leading 'Nations and Regions'
