\n\tNetflix has found its new head of public policy, turning to a veteran partner at the powerful law firm Akin Gump to oversee the streaming giant\u2019s policy strategy and manage its policy teams around the world.<\/p>\n

\n\tClete Willems, the Akin Gump attorney, will become Netflix\u2019s chief global affairs officer, based in Washington D.C., he will report to co-CEO Ted Sarandos, starting later this month.<\/p>\n

\n\tA veteran of both the Trump and Obama administrations (during Trump\u2019s first term he was an adviser on trade and economics issues, and worked in the office of the U.S. Trade Representative during Obama\u2019s administration), Willems \u201cadvises trade associations and multinational companies on international economic law and policy\u201d at Akin Gump.<\/p>\n

\n\tNetflix of course operates in over 190 countries, making its policy strategy and teams remarkably complex and sprawling.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe are excited to welcome Clete Willems as our Chief Global Affairs Officer. Clete\u2019s strong background in policy strategy and international relations will be key in guiding our global efforts,\u201d Sarandos said in a statement. \u201cHis expertise will help Netflix engage effectively with leaders worldwide, advocating for policies that support continued investment, innovation and growth.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tLast fall Netflix parted ways with chief communications officer Rachel Whetstone and global public policy VP Dean Garfield, saying at the time that it planned to combine policy and corporate communications. The company says it is still searching for someone to succeed Whetstone as its head of communications.<\/p>\n
