Equipment Rental
UK

As a Senior Sales & Rental Coordinator for Gravity Media, based in Ash Vale, Surrey, Ken Newmarch is accustomed to meeting even the most complex of broadcasting needs, at both the record and post production stages.

Ken’s strong strategic planning and communication skills combined with a natural abundance of creative energy ensures the expectations of every client are not only met, but exceeded.

Along with providing access to the very best equipment and the newest in broadcast technologies, Ken is responsible for the creation of complex workflows (for EVS integration & AVID), as well as planning and project-managing varying types of post production.

Utilising well-honed client liaison, relationship management, business development and logistical skills on a daily basis, Ken enjoys the challenges of his job and the variety of work involved in the role.

Joining former Gravity Media brand Hyperactive Broadcast in 2014 as a Hire Coordinator, Ken has since thrived in sales-focused roles within the company, quickly moving up the ranks to Senior Coordinator level.

He and his team work closely with post production companies, post-production supervisors and creative sectors as well as major studios. Although a majority of clients are associated with feature film and television drama, Ken is also experienced in the creation of OB workflows for large sporting events.

His solid experience in project management and knowledge of what clients need to make their set-ups work means Ken is adept at seeing projects right the way through, from initial enquiry, to project completion.

Holding a first-class honours degree in Television and Film Production, Ken enjoys taking a  collaborative approach when working, with an emphasis on fostering innovation and a strong entrepreneurial team spirit in the working environment.
