Rob Farina: Free Agent

• Well, this is disappointing news, to say the least… RAMP has learned that veteran programmer Rob Farina has exited Bell Media, Canada’s largest radio broadcaster, as part of a corporate restructuring. Farina most recently served as Head of Content, Strategy & iHeartRadio Canada for Bell Media and also oversaw Orbyt Media, Canada’s leading syndicator.

Farina joined Bell Media in 2016, transitioning from his post as VP of Programming and Innovation for Rogers Media’s radio division. Earlier in his career Farina programmed CHUM-FM/Toronto and was later upped to VP of Programming for CHUM Radio before joining Astral as EVP of Content and Platforms. He later relocated to Los Angeles to launch Black Box, a music company that provides strategy, artist development and digital marketing services.

Farina is now open to new opportunities worldwide and can be reached for meaningful conversations at rfarina45@gmail.com.
