Meet James!

Christy Media Solutions welcomes James Pearson as Associate Director, North America.

Website JP Circle We are delighted to announce the latest addition to our team, James Pearson. With a career spanning almost 10-years in recruitment and the vast majority in broadcast media and video streaming, James brings a wealth of knowledge, an extensive network, and a passion for the industry that aligns perfectly with our commitment to delivering top-tier talent solutions.

James has proven his dedication to the industry, developing a deep understanding of the video technology landscape and forging strong relationships within it. He is committed to staying ahead of the technology curve across broadcast media, OTT and streaming and you’ll often find him sharing his latest findings with his LinkedIn network.

James will be focused on further increasing our capabilities across North America and beyond as we continue to expand our presence in the United States. With experience placing candidates across the East and West Coasts, as well as Canada and Latin America, James is well placed to support our clients across our North America territory. His proven track record placing elite talent with leading media video technology organisations is testament to the knowledge and industry connections that James brings to the table for our clients.

Managing Director, Christian Magill, shared his enthusiasm for James’ appointment, saying, “We are thrilled to have James join our team as an Associate Director for North America. His extensive regional recruitment experience, dedication to understanding our industry and the technology behind this, are qualities that align perfectly with Christy Media’s values. I have no doubt that James will contribute significantly to our continued success and growth in the North American market.”

In the words of James himself, “I am really excited to join the team at Christy Media Solutions with a view to expanding our US capabilities. I’m passionate about the broadcast media space across the US market, which aligns well with Christy’s market position and reputation, so I’m excited to see what we build together.”

James has also brought with him an impressive array of jokes (debatable), some reasonable table tennis skill (also debatable), and more Arsenal fandom in the office! You’ll be able to catch him at US tradeshows such as NAB and NAB New York, as well at SVG events across the US.

Watch this space to see what unfolds as we look to further grow our North American team and business.
