Paula Divello is now running Cumulus’ four-station cluster in Abilene after her promotion to Market Manager. Divello will make the move to Abilene from Shreveport, where she was D.O.S.
Prior to running the sales operation for Cumulus in Shreveport, Divello was Director of Sales for Townsquare Media in Lufkin, TX, and also held Lufkin-based positions as Executive Director, Humane Society of Angelina County, and as Senior Account Executive, Digital Marketing Manager, and Local Sales Manager for Raycom Media.
Mark Sullivan, Regional Vice President-Operations, Cumulus Media, said: “Paula has proven to be a strong leader and I’m looking forward to her many successes in Abilene as our new VP/Market Manager. I’m really happy that we have such a talented group of managers within the company and that we are able to promote one of our own.”
Divello said: “Thank you to Mary Berner and the Cumulus leadership team for this opportunity. I am enthusiastically looking forward to leading from the front in Abilene, TX. It’s a strong cluster with an invested team in a great market, with tons of potential. I’ve learned and grown so much with Cumulus, experienced FORCE values and culture — and how consistently they drive success. It’s a privilege to have the opportunity to drive revenue, ratings, and community involvement for Cumulus as the new Vice President/Market Manager in Abilene.”
