Jackie O’Sullivan has been appointed Chief Executive Officer of Ausfilm, the organisation charged with promoting Australia internationally as a production destination. O’Sullivan will replace departing CEO Caroline Pitcher in August.

Martin Cayzer, Ausfilm Chairman, said: “Jackie will bring a truly international view to the organisation as well as a vast range of production experience when dealing with our key clients who are all based outside Australia, I believe she will be a great asset not only to us but to the industry as a whole.”
