GCap Media have already announced a replacement for Xfm Programme Director Andy Ashton who somewhat abruptly departed the station last week to "pursue other interests". Adam Uytman, currently Programme Director for the West Midlands outpost of EMAP's Kerrang! radio enterprise, will take over the Xfm programming role. It's not Uytman's first job within the GCap empire - previously he worked, as Head Of Music if I remember rightly, at Beat 106, the Capital Radio Group's Scottish youth station that has since been rebranded as Xfm Scotland.
Confirming the new appointment, Xfm Network MD Nick Davidson told reporters that Adam's "knowledge, skills and programming ability" would be invaluable at the station. Uytman himself added: "The Xfm brand as a whole has grown along with the explosion of the music scene that it is at the very heart of, making it a great time to join".
