Frequently Asked Questions
Category: News ReleasePeople who work at Channel 4
Channel 4 is a publisher/broadcaster. It does not produce its own programmes in-house, but commissions them from more than 300 independent production companies right across the UK. This means that, for the most part, Channel 4 does not directly employ cameramen, presenters, or other people involved in making television programmes.
Broadly, the Channel Four Television Corporation deals with the main Channel 4 service and 4 Ventures.
4 Ventures, the Corporation's wholly owned subsidiary, runs Channel 4's other digital channels (E4, More 4 and Film Four) and commercial ventures.
Information about Channel 4's headcount is available in our Annual Report, where it is broken down into individual departments. This report is available online.
