For over 10+ years, I have immersed myself in programming leadership and have cut a niche for myself in my life's passion - sports. From managing the premier 24-hour dedicated sports channel in Africa to developing partnerships and local content regionally and acquiring coveted international content, I have proven skills in developing programming that engages audiences and wins over advertisers. I am fascinated by the intersection of sports programming fundamentals, new technologies and aesthetics and firmly believe in looking to challenge norms. 'Staying hungry' is how we future proof ourselves. I also believe in collaborative leadership - synergizing executives at all levels to deliver exceptional results. Some of my past accomplishments that reflect my passion and competencies are:★ Negotiated broadcast rights with Rugby, Volleyball and Basketball associations within East Africa producing highly rated live productions and magazine shows.★ Successfully produced the 2013-16 Kenya Rugby Sevens and Fifteens seasons as well as international test matches; each an annual 300 hour, 6-12 camera set up and up to 40-member team, live production.★ Briefed and commissioned 3 magazine shows in Rugby, Basketball and Athletics with a total of 230 episodes.★ Attended the Sportel TV market and built solid relationships to acquire content with significant discounts or contract terms of up to 3 years with rightsholders, distribution agencies and aggregators including NBA, Arsenal TV, Tottenham TV, IAAF, IMG, MP & Silva and African Content Syndicates.★ Successfully delivered an African travelling basketball magazine show, the first in Africa, subsequently sublicensed to Hulu.Please feel free to connect with me on +254 720 880 413 | kamau.njoki@gmail.com for further details.
