Background

About Sahil Seth

Upon graduating from UCLA with a degree in political science and economics, my career aspirations have focused on combining the creative and commercial sides of the media and entertainment industry to produce engaging content that is appreciated by consumers and advertisers alike. Upon graduation, I worked in the TV Talent department at United Talent Agency under agent Jacob Fenton in the Los Angeles office and Nancy Gates in the NYC office. I aided in the representation of over 300 high profile clients, and assisted in covering TV projects in both the cable and network space. I moved to London in 2015, and promptly joined Channel 4. During my time at C4, I worked in a strategic department titled Special Projects, the corporate relations team, and the commissioning department in Creative Diversity. I then began my career in sales, first working in airtime client management. I then transitioned to working in commercial development - an enhanced licensing service to the partnerships department. I then transferred to the partnerships team as the direct contact to a handful of agencies for on air sponsorship campaigns and creative partnerships. After 4 years at Channel 4, I moved to ViacomCBS' international sales team as a partnerships manager. I worked with a variety of media agencies (Wavemaker, The7Stars, Havas, PHD, etc) and direct clients (including Paramount and Warner Bros Theatrical) to create bespoke campaigns that can include on-air, digital, social and event sponsorship elements alongside branded content. I currently work as a senior partnership manager at Little Dot Studios looking after the company's relationship with Prime Video UK. This entails production of original formats/ podcasts, Paid media promotion, YouTube channel management, and providing insights to ensure the highest level of service. I am incredibly passionate about mental health, having chaired Channel 4's mental health organisation, 4Mind. I am now part of ViacomCBS's Approach team. I have spoken at Adweek on Mental Health and have a large book of contacts across both advertising and mental health.
