Ralph Lee has been appointed chair of BAFTA albert, the first to hold the newly-created role.

The part-time, non-executive role is part of a new governance structure following an organisational review last year, part of a strategic assessment which included the Climate Action Blueprint; the new role was considered instrumental in delivering on this blueprint.

Lee was most recently CEO of BBC Studios Productions; during his time at the BBC he also led the D&I council. As BATA albert chair, he will also act as a conduit between BAFTA albert, BAFTA and the Industry Steering Group.

Lee said of his appointment: “It is an honour to be appointed as the first Chair of BAFTA albert. As the screen industries continue to grow it’s ever more important that we act together to achieve sustainability and secure our future.

“BAFTA albert’s work up to this point has been fantastic, and I’m excited to join at this crucial moment as we begin to supercharge the organisation’s impact both on and off-screen.”

Founded in 2011, BAFTA albert supports the film and TV industries in reducing the environmental impact of production and creating content that supports a vision for a sustainable future.
