EXCLUSIVE: YMU has found its new literary chief and promoted an exec for its new UK boss.
Briony Gowlett has been named Global Managing Director, Literary, while Anna Dixon is upped to UK Managing Director.
Gowlett comes from a background in publishing, which includes overseeing the recently launch of Octopus Publishing’s non-fiction imprint Radar.
She replaces Amanda Harris, who is exiting to launch her own business in 2025, as Deadline revealed in July.
“I’m thrilled to join YMU and channel my 18 years of publishing experience into a new challenge. Helping people uncover and share unique stories has always been my greatest joy, and now I have the opportunity to do that from the very start of the process,” said Gowlett. “YMU’s reputation is formidable, and to work with talented colleagues like Anna, Millie, and Elise to further the agency’s success is a unique and exciting opportunity.”
