MONTREAL — Suzane Landry has been appointed vice-president of French-language content development and programming for Bell Media, effective today.
Landry most recently worked for Quebecor, where she was programming director for TVA Group for the last six years, before departing in October after 13 years with the company. A journalist by training, Landry started her career nearly 30 years ago as a reporter. She transitioned into production where she developed and produced content for various broadcasters, reads the Bell Media news release.
Landry’s appointment was made by Karine Moses, president of Bell Media Quebec, who earlier today was named Bell’s vice-chair, Quebec, and now leads the company’s business, government and community investment initiatives across the province.
Reporting to Moses, Landry is responsible for the leadership, strategy and execution of all programming planning, original production and acquisitions for Bell Media’s French-language non-sports content.
“Suzane brings a breadth of industry knowledge that will expand our leadership in French-language content production, while accelerating digital innovation and evolving our approach to strategic, multiplatform delivery,” Moses said in the news release.
Landry was quoted in the release as saying: “I’m looking forward to working with a team known for its dedication to content creators and its commitment to investing in original French-language content. Together with this team of great talent and local producers, we will develop exceptional and compelling content for all platforms that stands out and, above all, engages Québecers.”
