Debbie Klein has been appointed to the newly created role of group chief marketing and corporate affairs officer at Sky.
She will join the group executive leadership team and be responsible for Sky’s overall brand and marketing development, as well as assuming overall leadership for corporate affairs and Sky’s Bigger Picture programme.
Klein joins from the communications and marketing business Engine Group, where she served as CEO for Europe and Asia Pacific.
She will report to chief executive Jeremy Darroch.
“I have loved working with Jeremy and the team at Sky as clients over many years, so the opportunity to step inside at such an exciting time and be part of shaping the future was one I simply could not pass up,” said Klein.
“It has been a privilege to lead Engine and I know I leave it in great shape, with an outstanding leadership team who will continue to grow and evolve it.”
“We are delighted to welcome Debbie to Sky,” Darroch added.
“She is an outstanding leader, who has an excellent track record and I know that she will be a great addition to our leadership team. We are all very much looking forward to working with her as a colleague, as we build the next chapter of Sky.”
