Bio
Jeff Shell is the former President of Paramount Skydance Corporation. In his role, Shell focused on the company's streaming and advertising businesses: Paramount Skydance prioritized unifying its direct-to-consumer offerings — Paramount+, Pluto TV, and BET+ — which at the time operated across separate tech stacks and two different cloud platforms with no connectivity between them. The company also established new agency partnerships with Publicis and IPG Mediabrands, which Shell indicated would reduce internal marketing costs and carry significant revenue commitments for the company's digital advertising business over three years. Prior to joining Paramount Skydance, Shell served as CEO of NBCUniversal, a subsidiary of Comcast, from 2019 to 2023.
