There have been a couple of executive changes at GMG Radio ahead of the previously reported promotion of Stuart Taylor to the role of CEO.
According to Radio Today, Group Sales Director Julian Carter is leaving, because his role will become redundant once Taylor takes over the top job, for a reason I haven't quite fathomed. The company will, however, need a new Group Commercial Director, which is the role Taylor has previously filled at the company. They will also appoint a National Sales Director, which is presumably very different from the Group Sales Director.
Anyway, here's what Taylor has to say about it all: "My forthcoming move to the position of CEO has provided an opportunity to look at our senior management structure to see if we could strengthen the team further. It's crucial that we have the right resource to drive this business forward in the coming years, which is why we are committed to bringing in talented senior individuals to maximise the commercial potential of our brands".
