Stewart studied at the Royal College of Art and worked as a director and producer in London before moving to Newcastle to set up his own production company, Trade Films. This award-winning company went on to produce over 30 award winning dramas and documentaries including two feature length films for C4 and ZDF, BORDER CROSSING and ENDS AND MEANS.
His film WHEN THE DOG BITES was nominated for the John Grierson Award and THE MINERS' TAPES was winner of the Grierson Award.
Stewart has worked for all the UK broadcasters and a number of major independent production companies, including Endemol. He was responsible for developing and producing DOUBLE EXPOSURE, a ground-breaking drama series for writers new to television which involved BBC Drama Departments in Scotland, Ireland and England.
He produced THIS LITTLE LIFE which was directed by Sarah Gavron, and went on to win numerous awards including the Dennis Potter Award, two BAFTAs, four RTS Awards and the BANFF award. It was nominated for three British Independent Film Awards and was pre-selected and awarded a special Prix Europa.
Stewart is a director of the company and Chief Executive.
