Deep Bagchee, a driving force behind the launch of ITVX, is exiting to become President of CNBC International. Bagchee replaces John Casey, who Deadline revealed was stepping down late last year after almost 30 years with the news network.
An interim team had been filling in for the past few months. Bagchee’s role will see him oversee the news network’s editorial output outside of the U.S., building out its operations and audiences across TV, digital, social, audio and live events.
Bagchee announced the news on X a few days ago. As ITV‘s first ever Chief Product Officer, Bagchee was one of the driving forces behind ITVX, the free streaming service launched by the public broadcaster around one-and-a-half years ago that was an evolution of predecessor ITV Hub.
He joined ITV in September 2021. An ITV spokeswoman said succession plans for Bagchee will be announced in the next couple of months and he will remain with the broadcaster until the summer. “Deep Bagchee will be leaving ITV to take up the role of President of CNBC International,” she added. “This is a fantastic opportunity for Deep and ITV wishes him well in his new role.” By providing your information, you agree to our Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy.
