Moira Hogan, the Executive Vice President of BritBox International and General Manager for Australia, is set to depart after five successful years. Her leadership marked significant milestones for the streaming service in Australia and beyond.
Achievements During Moira Hogan’s Tenure
Under Hogan’s guidance, BritBox launched in Australia in 2020. She oversaw the company’s financial performance and strategic growth initiatives. Notable accomplishments include:

Hogan’s role expanded after the formation of BritBox International, which included overseeing territories like the Nordics and South Africa. Her contributions significantly bolstered the brand’s presence internationally.
Reflections on Her Departure
In a statement, Hogan expressed pride in her achievements with the BritBox team. She explained that recent industry shifts towards domestic focuses prompted her decision to explore new challenges that resonate with her background in international business leadership.

Despite the difficulty of leaving, Hogan believes her departure is a natural progression. She stated, “I’m leaving behind a strong, resilient team that will continue to thrive and grow.” Hogan emphasized her affection for the company, promising to remain its biggest supporter.
