Warner Bros Home Entertainment UK, Ireland, Spain and Nordics home entertainment group chief John Stanley is to take responsibility for digital distribution and consumer products in the UK market. 

Stanley, who is SVP and managing director, Warner Bros Home Entertainment Group UK, Ireland, Spain and Nordics, will take overall charge at Warner Bros Digital Distribution UK and Warner Bros Consumer Products UK, in addition to his existing responsibilities.

Recently appointed consumer products UK general manager Kevin Lewis will report to both Stanley and Pilar Zulueta, executive vice-president and general manager, EMEA, Warner Bros Consumer Products.

“In this well-deserved appointment, John’s new broader remit reflects our commitment to cross-category selling, a concept that he has spear-headed to tremendous success over the years,” said Josh Berger, president and managing director, Warner Bros UK, Ireland and Spain, to whom Stanley reports.

“With our products being increasingly sold across many different platforms, John is well-positioned to maximise the sales of our key franchises in one joined-up operation.”
