Aaranee Maitra
Senior Content & Post-Production Manager at DAZN Group
Global Content Management & Delivery | Ex-Disney & Technicolor
BACKGROUND:
Over 15 years ago, I started in broadcast media supplying tv and film content to broadcasters in various languages. I then transitioned into digital media distribution working with video on demand platforms supplying content to providers in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. I leveraged this content management and delivery knowledge to transition into operational delivery of film, tv, and sports content to global streaming services.

EXPERIENCE:
Since then, I have been leading the content life cycle to ensure all non-live programming is briefed, acquired, re-versioned, and delivered globally as per business strategy, collaborating with clients and stakeholders to meet the demands of aggressive content delivery to platforms. Formulating operating models to scale workflows creating efficiency, whilst working with global leaders and teams. In tandem focusing on leadership and developing my own team internationally.

APPROACH:
Building out the center of excellence to formulate a workflow strategy for video content delivery, whilst leveraging the use of cloud-based technology, automation, and data analysis to drive results. I am proactively driven, working across multiple projects and cross-functional teams.

        Aaranee was one of my most valued friends and colleague at Disney and without her I wouldn't be working for the company. 
In my previous role, I was one of Aaranee's clients. It was because of her positive, professional and always-friendly attitude that made me want to work for Disney (and through her advice I eventually started working alongside her). 

As an Executive coordinator, Aaranee was my senior and I could always rely on her support during challenging times or in areas where I needed guidance. 

Her professionalism and attention to detail are second-to-none and it was upsetting (to everyone) when she announced she was leaving. Any company would be genuinely lucky to have her as an asset.   Thatcher Thornburg
      
          



            
              
        
              
  

    
        I have had the pleasure of working with Aaranee on many title releases, during her time at Disney.  She is  self-motivated, positive and drives results.  This enables her to Manage each task and project with great success. Her ability to make critical, time sensitive decisions, that keep each project on track and on budget, is a fantastic skill that any employer will be lucky to have on their team.  Aaranee's positive attitude, attention to detail and strong leadership, ensures that everyone is successful on the team, this is a highly valuable asset to any workplace.
