I am a freelance Series Director and Executive Producer with extensive experience leading high-profile projects for all the major UK and international broadcasters working for production companies such as Sandstone Global, Lion TV, Voltage TV, Wall to Wall, and Storyvault TV. I also develop independent projects through my own company, which recently secured commissions from Ancestry and the Spanish streaming platforms Caixa Forum Plus and Filmin.

Alongside production, I have consistently taken on leadership roles within the industry. For seven years, until 2024, I was Vice-Chair of Directors UK, advocating for creative and working conditions on behalf of over 8,000 members. In 2024 I served on the Edinburgh TV Festival Committee, curating and developing panel sessions that shaped key conversations across the sector. I have also contributed to the wider cultural landscape as a trustee for the Directors Charitable Trust and as a judge for the 2024 Realscreen Awards, RTS Student Awards and the 2025 Grierson awards.

My career reflects both creative ambition and a commitment to championing talent and ideas across the industry. LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anna-thomson-137a516
