He reports into Rupert Brankin-Frisby, Commercial Director, talkbackTHAMES and Dominic Burns, Senior Vice President, Licensing UK, FremantleMedia Enterprises.Robert is responsible for driving the UK strategy for the extension of broadcast properties onto digital platforms, as well as across digital licensing, telephony and bespoke online commissions. In his previous position as VP of Interactive & Telephony, he played a prominent role in the digital development of a wide variety of high profile programmes including Family Fortunes and the award winning Britain’s Got Talent, The Bill, The X Factor, and The Apprentice. In his current role he will continue to focus on extending new on- and off-air opportunities whilst working with current commercial partners and broadcasters to bring fans closer to their favourite brands and offer a true 360° experience. The newly redesigned website for The X Factor exemplifies the work of Robert and his team. To date it has had nearly 31 million page views, over 5.8 million visits and shown over 9.6 million video clips. All of these statistics are substantial increases on last year’s traffic for the site which is attributed to the on-going innovative development of the brand.

The official Facebook Fan site now has over 700,000 dedicated fans and Twitter, 27,000.
