International Broadcast Leader | Rights, Production & Major Event Delivery | 4x FIFA World Cups | Olympics | Global Sports Media I’m a senior broadcast and media executive with over 15 years’ experience delivering world-class international sporting events across Europe and the Middle East. My career spans senior leadership roles at beIN Media Group, the Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy (Qatar 2022), and global tournaments including four FIFA World Cups and multiple Olympic Games. I have led large, multi-disciplinary teams across production, scheduling, rights management, and international broadcast operations — ensuring complex events are delivered on time, on budget, and to the highest editorial and technical standards. At beIN, I progressed from Executive Producer to Manager of Scheduling & Planning, overseeing multi-channel sports portfolios across international markets. My focus has always been creating clarity in complexity — aligning editorial, technical, commercial and operational teams so delivery becomes seamless. Alongside production leadership, I have extensive experience in: • Broadcast rights strategy and sales • Host broadcast liaison (including working alongside HBS at World Cups and Euros) • International stakeholder management • Governance, planning and workflow optimisation • Large-scale event operations I’m particularly passionate about the intersection of sport, storytelling, technology and fan engagement — from host broadcast operations to immersive experiential concepts and branded sports activations. I enjoy connecting with leaders across sport, media, broadcast technology, rights, and content strategy — especially those building ambitious international projects
