Klint promoted head of sales at Nordisk

by 

Nordisk Film International Sales (NFIS) has promoted Tine Klint from Sale executive to Head of International Sales. She was hired by Nordisk in April 2006 after having spent seven years at Trust Film Sales.

NFIS’s sales team also includes Susan Wendt, Sales manager; Sanne Arlø, Sales executive; and Nicolai Korsgaard, head of PR and Marketing. Commenting on her new position, Klint said: “One of our main priorities is to expand sales by improving our profile with a clear film focus. I believe that our new label structure dividing films into categories will help us achieve that”. NFIS’s new three labels structure was launched earlier this year.
