Hill New VP/Sales For Cumulus Chicago

• Cumulus Media has appointed 30-year Chicago radio sales pro Jeff Hill as Vice President of Sales for Cumulus Media Chicago. In this newly created position, Hill will head sales for Alternative WKQX, Classic Hits WLS-FM and Talk WLS 890 AM. The move marks a radio homecoming of sorts for Hill, who previously served as Local Sales Manager for WLS-AM back in the day.

Hill crosses the street from WGN Radio, where spent the past eight years as Director of Sales. He previously served the station as Local Sales Manager and Interim GM. Prior to that, he was Sales Manager for ABC Radio for eight years and Local Sales Manager for CBS Radio’s WCKG.

Marv Nyren, VP/Market Manager of Cumulus Media Chicago, said, “Cumulus Chicago is thrilled to be adding a market veteran like Jeff Hill as our Vice President of Sales. Jeff’s success in Chicago will allow our cluster to continue to build relationships with the ad community and compete at the highest levels of performance.” No less thrilled is Hill, who remarked, “I’m really excited to join the Cumulus Chicago radio group. I look forward to learning from the team and sharing my experience with the staffs of 101 WKQX, WLS-FM and WLS-AM.”
