Sam Tomlinson, UK Media and Entertainment Sector Leader at PwC, said: 

“I’m excited to be taking on the role of Media and Entertainment Leader at PwC and continuing the great work across PwC in solving our clients’ complex problems with speed, imagination and care.  

“It’s been a challenging couple of years for the sector and while some companies were able to adapt to changing consumer behaviour during the pandemic, others will have had time to rethink their strategy. I look forward to helping the media sector thrive as a source of revenue, jobs, information and entertainment for the UK and globally.”

Quentin Cole, UK Head of Industries at PwC UK, said:

“I’m delighted to welcome Sam as our new Media and Entertainment sector leader. He brings a wealth of experience advising media companies across the country.
