FRENCH ADAPTATION FOR ‘THE BIG JOB SWITCH’

Following the commission by VOX in Germany, one of the commercial broadcasters in France has now confirmed a local adaptation of the life-changing social experiment ‘The Big Job Switch’, to be produced by ITV Studios France. In its home territory Belgium, a second season is currently in production for VTM. Options have been confirmed in a range of other territories, including Spain and Scandinavia.

On ‘The Big Job Switch’, five individuals resign from their jobs, without knowing what lies ahead. All they do know is that a group of experts will go in search for the ideal job for each of them. They’ll be guided towards radical career changes in the hopes of finding them the perfect professional match.

Says Be-Entertainment MD Gepke Nederlof: ‘’We are thrilled to work with ITVS France on this adaptation. It is such a relevant topic nowadays and proved to be a real eye opener and inspiration for the participants and viewers alike in Belgium when it first launched in Belgium.’’

The format was created and produced by the highly successful Belgian production company Geronimo.
