Philips Named Pres., Audacy Networks
• Audacy has promoted Chief Revenue Officer Bob Philips to the newly created position of President of Audacy Networks and Multi-Market Sales. The news was shared with the staff in a memo from Chief Operating Officer Susan Larkin, which reads, in part, “We believe Bob will deliver significant revenue impact and client outcomes by focusing on growing our Network and multi-market sales businesses as we continue to execute our market growth strategy.
As Chief Revenue Officer, Bob was a catalyst for innovation and growth. Under his leadership, we streamlined multiple revenue departments, launched the Audacy Network and our in-house traffic network while also revolutionizing our approach to national sales, bringing new brands and bigger opportunities onto our platform. And, as the economy rebounds and local and national advertising return to pre-pandemic levels, Bob will build exponential value for our clients and for Audacy.”
Larkin added, “We will begin a search for a new CRO immediately, and during this transition, I will be working closely with our sales leaders and teams. We greatly appreciate Bob’s continued commitment to our future growth.”
