Gravity Media has expanded its support team at the company’s production centre in White City, London.
Róisín McKeniry has joined as head of technology, while Paul Sykes has been appointed chief facility engineer (Westworks Project).
Both will be key technical leads for the production centre, said Gravity, working with the engineering and technology leadership as well as the project engineering, post production and production centre teams based in London to build and guarantee the company’s remote production workflows as well as the technical integrity and output of the facility, supporting and driving the handover of the site from build to operate and maintain.
McKeniry joins Gravity Media from Timeline / BT Sport Stratford where she was responsible for the technology provision and delivery from the facility. She will lead the team of engineers at the production centre, London (White City) ensuring the studios, production galleries and workflows are designed, operated, and supported to ensure successful live deliveries every time, said the company.
Sykes was involved in the build out of the facility, and will continue to drive the systems integration as it develops and more services come online, added the company.
Martin Deutsch has also joined the company broadcast engineer from the Timeline / BT Sport team at Stratford where he was the lead MCR engineer supporting the facility.
Nick Symes, director – technology said: “We are delighted to announce we are expanding our team at our newest London home.
