EXCLUSIVE: The promotion sees the executive extend her UK remit, EMEA managing director of film Alex Hamilton announced on Thursday.
In her expanded role, Roberts will drive and oversee strategic publicity campaigns across European territories for the theatrical slate, which includes acquisitions and original productions.

“I’m delighted that she will bring her sharp instincts, deep relationships and bold approach to champion our film publicity efforts across the EMEA region.”

She also led eOne’s UK award campaigns on 12 Years A Slave and Spotlight, among others.
Prior to eOne, Roberts serves as head of publicity at Momentum Pictures.
