Capital London programming chief steps down
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 11 December 2012
The programming boss of London’s Capital FM station is stepping down after over two years in the job. James Brownlow took over the programming role at the Global-owned station in 2010, having previously worked at what was then Galaxy in the North West, a station Global acquired in 2007. While overseeing programming at Capital in London, Global has extended the brand to FM frequencies all over the UK, albeit with different execs overseeing the wider network.
Brownlow’s deputy, Robert D’Ovidio, will take over as PD in the interim while a full-time replacement is appointed. Confirming the departure, Global’s Richard Park said: “We are disappointed to lose James, and wish him well for the future”, while Brownlow himself added: “Global is a fantastic company and I wish all the team at Capital continued success”.
