Jeff England has been named the new VP/Market Manager for Hubbard Radio’s four-station cluster in Chicago. He replaces John Gallagher who was let go in August after running the cluster for two years.
England moves to Chicago from Phoenix where he was the VP/Director of Sales for Hubbard. Prior to joining Hubbard, England was the President/Market Manager and DOS in Phoenix for Clear Channel. His career started in Atlanta where he worked for Shamrock Broadcasting, Jacor Broadcasting, and Clear Channel in sales and sales management roles.
In Chicago, Hubbard owns WTMX 101.9 FM (The Mix), WDRV 99.7 FM/WWDV 96.9 FM (The Drive), and WSHE 100.3 FM. Chicago is the largest market in the Hubbard Radio portfolio. Hubbard Radio President/COO Drew Horowitz said, “We are thrilled to have someone with Jeff’s experience and competitive spirit assuming the leadership mantle in our largest market. What makes our choice of Jeff even more gratifying is we were able to promote from within, which is always our preference.”
“I am beyond thrilled with this opportunity,” said England. “We have legacy brands and great people at Hubbard Chicago. I look forward to working with our team to grow our audiences, our clients’ businesses, and serve our community. I will also be shopping for a new winter wardrobe!”
