Tinopolis Group ups Jennifer Roberts to CEO - Televisual

The Tinopolis Group has appointed Jennifer Roberts as its Chief Executive Officer following Arwel Rees’s decision to retire at the end of the year.

Roberts joined the group in 2005 as its Chief Financial Officer and “has been instrumental in delivering the acquisitions and investment strategies that have seen the group become one of the industry’s leading independent television producers.”

Roberts will take on the role from January 2025.

James Dearing, currently Tinopolis Chief Financial Officer in the USA has expanded his role to become the group’s Chief Financial Officer.  Dearing has been a key part of Tinopolis management for over 10 years and led the integration into the group of the Los Angeles-based companies.

Executive Chairman of Tinopolis, Ron Jones, said: “Following Arwel’s decision to retire we are delighted that in Jennifer we have an outstanding person inside the group ready and qualified to take over.  She is an outstanding leader, well known and respected by everyone in Tinopolis and by all our external stakeholders. It’s never easy to lose a person of Arwel’s experience and contribution but with Jennifer as CEO the group is in safe hands.

“We are also delighted that following his retirement Arwel will stay involved with Tinopolis as a non-executive director”

Jennifer Roberts said: “Being a part of the Tinopolis group management team for the many years I am delighted to take the lead moving forward.  Tinopolis has become one of the leading production and distribution houses in television thanks to our incredible talent, and I am looking forward to writing the next chapter of our story.”
