The former executive at Goldman Sachs will oversee all film and television distribution and business development in the international marketplace for the New York-based company.

While the hire does not coincide with the launch of an international sales arm Screen International understands that avenue remains a possibility down the line.

Lloyd was a founding partner of what became Solar Entertainment where she led the $750m recapitalisation of Summit Entertainment and advised on the acquisition of the Miramax library from Disney by Colony Capital.

At Goldman Sachs her clients included Lionsgate, The Weinstein Company and DNA Films. 

“Sasha is a very exciting addition to the A24 family,” said A24. “We have collaborated with her previously, and she has always impressed us with her expertise, ingenuity, and intelligence.”
