The Kitchen hires Julie Beneteau as Director of International Sales

Julie Beneteau (Wasdell), a 20-year respected localization industry veteran, has been appointed The Kitchen’s new Director of International Sales. She is based in London and will represent The Kitchen’s aggressive overseas client growth plans.

Most recently, Julie was with Keywords Studios, in London, serving as Global Manager, OTT & Broadcast, working closely with the company’s international teams for dubbing, audio description, captioning, subtitling and post sound.

“The Kitchen’s continued international growth plans, following the introduction of its first European language servicing 'hub' this past October, calls for an extremely knowledgeable and experienced industry professional to service the vast market and Julie fits the bill perfectly,” Deeny Kaplan, Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing, explained. “Julie’s understanding of the entire language localization processes are spot on, and her plans to expand the studios’ international reach are in line with the company’s on-going expansion plan.”

“I am absolutely delighted to join The Kitchen Family. London is a fantastic location to be for the Media and Entertainment industry and I cannot wait to grow The Kitchen's client base. Keeping globalization on a human scale and thriving on quality has always been my mantra and this is why I am very confident in embarking on this new adventure with The Kitchen team. The global studios’ long and short-term growth plans mirror mine in terms of where the industry is headed and I am confident that The Kitchen’s approach to the localization of all content is on the right track,” Julie Beneteau added.
