Leading post facility hires Head of Production

Blue, part of the VTR Group, has bolstered its management team with the appointment of Head of Production, Alan Cronin.
Cronin brings 13 years’ postproduction experience to the blue team. He joins the company after an 11 year stint at TSI, where most recently he held the position of Senior Producer, having previously worked in various senior client-facing roles.
Cronin’s experience lies mainly in broadcast programming, having worked across a number of high-profile Talkback, Tiger Aspect and HBO productions.
In his new role Cronin will head up an eight-strong team of producers working across blue’s broadcast, on-air and commercials markets, upholding the highest levels of customer service and attention to detail and identifying new business opportunities for the company.
“Blue has been through an extremely positive period of change over the past 18 months and was the perfect choice for my next career move,” said Cronin. “It’s great to join such a dynamic group of people and I’m confident we’ve got exactly the right team to take this business to the next level and build on its many recent successes.”
Danny Whybrow, Managing Director at blue, added: “Alan is a well-respected figure in the industry, who I’ve known for many years.
“It was obvious from the beginning that we’re extremely forward thinking and like-minded in our approach and he completely understands blue’s focus and philosophy. For this reason he was the natural choice to join the team.”
