AUCKLAND, Yesterday: Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) ANZ introduced a fresh Networks leadership team as part of their new business strategy.
Juliet Peterson, VP and Head of Networks, ANZ, expressed excitement about the new team. “This year has been immensely challenging for the WBD ANZ networks team, with huge and disruptive changes. I think this refreshed leadership team is exactly the right group of people to take us into the future and chart a pathway to success.”
The new leadership team members include:
Matt Barthow, Senior Director, Content, ANZ
Charlotte Holden, Director, Legal, ANZ
Stephanie Taylor-Carrillo, Director, Corporate Comms, ANZ
“It is going to be incredibly difficult to say goodbye to so many amazing people who we work with, but looking into the future, I’m excited by the potential of the new business.”
They join existing members:
James Hole, Senior Director, Revenue, ANZ
Sasha Mackie, Senior Director, Marketing, ANZ
Gab Ayoub, GVP, Head of Creative, APAC

Richard Sutherland, Head of News, and Kylie Elsom, VP P&C, ANZ, will stay until July 31.
“It is going to be incredibly difficult to say goodbye to so many amazing people who we work with, but looking into the future, I’m excited by the potential of the new business. We have the best team in the sector, and clear plans to scale audiences with market leading content and products.”
Peterson highlighted Matt Barthow’s journey, “I especially want to single out Matt Barthow, who has been working in the Flower Street studios since 2007, starting out as an intern. Now as Senior Director, Content, he will lead content strategy, programming, acquisition, commissioning and scheduling for WBD’s portfolio of Pay and free-to-air channels and platforms across Australia and New Zealand.”
