ABC has appointed TV writer/producer Jon Casimir as Head of Entertainment. He will take up his position at ABC TV in Sydney on 8 April.



Casimir is currently an executive producer with Cordell Jigsaw Zapruder, working on the second season of Julia Zemiro’s Home Delivery (ABC TV). At CJZ, he has played a key role in development projects currently in the ABC TV pipeline.



Richard Finlayson, ABC TV’s Director of Television, said: “We’re delighted that ABC TV can attract someone of Jon’s calibre to this position. He brings with him a wealth of entertainment creation and production experience, having already been responsible for some of ABC TV’s most successful entertainment programmes.”



Casimir said: “Having spent the last decade in a de facto relationship with the ABC, I am glad we’ve finally made it to the altar. I’m joining a network that I love, a network with a commitment to quality, creativity and risk-taking, three ideas under siege in media these days. It’s probably trowelling it on to say this, but it’s a genuine honour to be asked to work for one of Australia’s greatest institutions.”



Sophia Zachariou, who has been acting Head of Entertainment, has been appointed Deputy Head of Entertainment.
