Scott Herman, who’s held leadership roles with CBS for decades, will not be joining the merged company. In December Herman will be completing his 39th year in the radio business. His first job was a News Production Assistant at 1010 WINS in NYC owned by Group W, Westinghouse Broadcasting, which was eventually purchased by CBS. 2017 will mark the 11th year Herman appears on Radio Ink’s 40 Most Powerful People in Radio list. However, we do not expect Herman will ride off into the sunset and hang out on the beach for long.
Entercom CEO David Field said, “I want to add a special word of recognition to Scott Herman, who has done a terrific job over so many years in various leadership roles at CBS, culminating in his current position as Chief Operating Officer. While we are disappointed that Scott will be moving on to pursue other personal and professional endeavors, we greatly respect his outstanding leadership contributions to the organization. We wish him nothing but the best in the future.”
Field said this list of his management team is “a work in progress and in the weeks ahead, as planning continues, we will announce additional members of the leadership team, as well as information on a wide range of other important topics as we continue to prepare for this game-changing event. Here is the current list in alphabetical order:
JD Crowley, Executive Vice President of Digital
Mike Dee, President of Sports
Michael Doyle, Regional President and President of Sales Operations
Ruth Gaviria, Chief Marketing Officer
Weezie Kramer, Chief Operating Officer
Chris Oliviero, Executive Vice President of Programming
Pat Paxton, President of Programming
Bob Philips, Chief Revenue Officer
Rich Schmaeling, Chief Financial Officer
Andrew Sutor, Senior Vice President and General Counsel
Congratulations Scott on an amazing body of work. 💥 Good luck going forward.
