Eccho Rights taps Tess Charman as Director of Sales for Continental Europe

Eccho Rights has recruited former Avalon Distribution executive Tess Charman for the role of Director of Sales for Continental Europe. Starting from the 1st of September, she will be based in Eccho's London office and will be handling continental Europe and Pan-Regional sales (excluding Iberia), focusing on Eccho's slate of English and Nordic language titles.

”We are very pleased to expand our sales team with one of the most qualified professionals in our industry who has hands-on experience growing sales of scripted content into major European territories,” says Fredrik af Malmborg, CEO of Eccho Rights.

Eccho Rights is currently expanding its catalog of English language titles together with parent company Night Train Media and has a strong lineup of new projects due to launch in the coming year. Eccho is actively developing new investment models, bringing high-end projects to market through collaboration with platforms and broadcasters for commissions, and growing its focus on co-productions, which are acquired with multiple broadcasters boarding projects at the development stage.

Tess Charman added, ”I'm delighted to join Eccho Rights, especially during such an exciting period of growth for the company. I am looking forward to working closely with the UK and International teams and representing the growing slate of drama projects throughout Europe.”
