Disney has promoted Jimmy Zasowski to the new role of President of Platform Distribution for Disney Entertainment and ESPN. In the new role, he will be responsible for distribution and monetization for Disney’s streaming platforms and linear television networks. This includes streamers like Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN, and traditional television networks like ABC. He will be reporting jointly to three people: Disney Entertainment co-chairmen Alan Bergman and Dana Walden, and ESPN chairman Jimmy Pitaro.

“Jimmy is a skilled strategist, excellent dealmaker, and a thoughtful, collaborative leader who will advance the company’s distribution efforts to the next level,” Bergman, Walden, and Pitaro said in a joint statement. “We have full confidence in his ability to lead this global organization, build on the strength of the team, and drive results as consumer viewing habits and the media landscape continue to evolve.”

“I’m honored to have the opportunity to lead the best distribution and content sales team in the industry,” said Zasowski. “I look forward to building upon the successful partnerships that we have across the globe and further expanding access to Disney’s best-in-class content in this dynamic marketplace.”

Previously, Zasowski was the Executive Vice President of Platform Distribution Strategy. He joined Disney in 2009.
