BEN FROW, DIRECTOR OF PROGRAMMING: PARAMOUNT

“Claire worked with BBC Scotland commissioning in 2022 and was a fantastic asset to the team.  She’s a really creative and experienced professional executive who has worked on an amazing range of shows and she brought energy, enthusiasm and ambition to our team and to our output.”

LOUISE THORNTON, HEAD OF COMMISSIONING, BBC SCOTLAND

“Claire is a very senior editorial leader and having pitched to her in the past as a commissioner, and appreciating her creative additions to our pitches, were delighted to get her to work with us at Outline for a period as a development consultant across a range of different projects for UK and Global broadcasters and streamers and at a broad range of turnaround times and budget levels.  She also led brainstorms and development leadership and feedback sessions for the internal team.

Claire was a real joy to work with and great fun, bringing energy, positivity, insight as well as challenge to the team.  All of which are needed in the mix of a factual entertainment development team.  Her approach to work is highly creative, collaborative and helpful.  We asked her to input to formats big and small and she proved highly adaptable to all of it.  She has a great ability to challenge assumptions and interrogate thinking approaches and always bring a constructive approach.  She loves telly and knows a lot about how it’s made, what broadcasters look for and this knowledge and passion shines through her work in a really useful way.”
