Â鶹Éç Worldwide announces departure of Wayne Garvie

Â鶹Éç Worldwide, the commercial arm of the Â鶹Éç, today announces that Wayne Garvie is to leave Â鶹Éç Worldwide to take up a new role with All3Media.

Garvie joined Â鶹Éç Worldwide in 2006 as Managing Director, Content & Production, overseeing its content investment strategy, international production network and talent and brand ventures. Helen Jackson, Director of the Indies Unit, will lead the business on an acting basis and a permanent successor will be named in due course.

Before joining Â鶹Éç Worldwide, Garvie was the Â鶹Éç's Head of Entertainment Group from 2001. Prior to that, he was Head of Entertainment and Features for Â鶹Éç Manchester. He joined Â鶹Éç Manchester in 1998 after ten years at Granada Television.

John Smith, CEO of Â鶹Éç Worldwide, said: "Wayne has had an exemplary career at the Â鶹Éç, including the last four years at Â鶹Éç Worldwide. He goes with our gratitude for all he has done, particularly in establishing our international production base and taking fantastic shows such as Dancing With The Stars to the world. He leaves in place a very strong team to lead our Content & Production business while we search for a successor. We wish him the very best in pastures new."

Wayne Garvie said: "I have enjoyed wonderful times at the Â鶹Éç. I feel especially proud and privileged to have been at Worldwide these last few years, and have been inspired by the leadership and challenge given to me by John. Our Content & Production business is in excellent shape and in very safe hands. However, All3Media represents a terrific opportunity for new challenges and experiences, which I simply cannot resist."
