Bell Media has promoted Tracey Pearce to the role of SVP specialty and pay, effective immediately.

Pearce replaces SVP of specialty channel Catherine MacLeod, who left Bell Media last week due to family reasons, according to the broadcaster.

Pearce will report to Phil King, president, CTV, sports and entertainment programming, while overseeing a host of Bell Media TV properties.

Pearce joined the broadcaster in 2001, and most recently was SVP business and legal affairs for Bell Media.

She also recently returned to Toronto from the U.K., where she lived and worked as lead counsel for Canada’s Olympic Broadcast Media Consortium and served Bell Media in an advisory role.

Before joining Bell Media, Pearce was a partner at Goodmans LLP.
