The ATS Team, the international production company and production services provider behind Clash Of Trades, has promoted Danny Sanz to COO.

Sanz previously served as MD and EVP of production at the firm, which was the set design and construction firm for shows such as Ninja Warrior and moved into original content and full production services last year.

In his new role, Sanz will lead the international expansion of The ATS Team, with a focus on the US, Europe and Latin America production markets. He will work between the company’s London, LA and Lisbon offices to continue developing its international formats, and build on its team, with CEO Nate Moore at the helm.

Since the start of 2022, Sanz has led the line production of The Bridge alongside Workerbee and two seasons of SAS: Who Dares Wins, from Minnow Films, both in Vietnam. The ATS Team is now providing production services on France Ninja Warrior for TF1 in Cannes and Top Dog Germany S3 for RTL in Cologne, Germany.

“I am constantly impressed with the talented and committed team that we have built over the years, so it’s a real honour to be made COO as we continue to build the business and take our unique services around the world.

“We’ve had the pleasure of leading some of the world’s flagship factual entertainment formats, and we’re now looking forward to building our presence in new markets, as well as developing our own content,” said Sanz.
