Fetch TV marketing director to depart after 15 years
Two Fetch TV executives have announced they will be leaving the company this week.
On Friday, it was revealed that marketing director, Sue Brenchley, will be stepping down from her role with the Australian IPTV provider at the end of this year after a 15-year run.
“I joined Fetch when it was a scrappy start up determined to disrupt the Australian media landscape by creating a world class entertainment service,” Brenchley said.
“Over the past 15 years, Fetch has led the way with our technology and aggregation proposition, and delivered great value to our customers. I am proud of the product, brand and business we have built, and feel so fortunate that I was able to be part of something so extraordinary from the start. I am especially proud of the culture we created under the leadership of Scott Lorson, and I am thankful to the whole Fetch team, and for the ongoing support of our many media, content and distribution partners without whom we wouldn’t have been able to make Fetch happen.

“It’s now time for me to step down and hand over to the new team, and I wish [Fetch CEO Dominic Arena] and everyone at Fetch all the very best for the future.”
Meanwhile, Fetch’s chief content and commercial officer, Sam Hall, will also leave the company after eight years.
“I feel honoured to have built out Fetch’s extensive content offering, negotiating complex deals with global SVOD partners, major Hollywood studios and local content owners,” Hall said.
“As a team we have delivered a market leading product that has now reached great heights, and with the migration of Telstra TV customers nearing completion it is time to pass the baton to the next generation of Fetchers.”

Arena – who only joined Fetch this past June – is expected to announce a refreshed executive team in the coming weeks.
“Sue and Sam have been strong leaders on the front line of Fetch and I thank them both for their contributions and dedication to Fetch TV over many years,” Arena said.
“Sam is a talented executive who has been truly integral to the core business delivering our customers the huge breadth of quality digital entertainment on our platform today. Sue is a hugely well respected and long-tenured founding member of the Fetch executive team, and has truly put her all into Fetch from when it was an unknown IPTV start-up to now, as a great brand servicing 1.8 million Australians.
“I genuinely wish Sam and Sue all the best for their futures.”
