Westwood One announced that it has promoted Cumulus/New York Market Manager Kim Bryant to Executive Vice-President, West Coast Sales, effective immediately.

In this newly-created role, Bryant will oversee West coast sales operations across all Westwood One assets, including network sales, spot sales, platform, digital, and events.  She will be based in Los Angeles and report directly to Westwood One President Steve Shaw.  An announcement is expected soon on the Cumulus New York Market Manager position.

This is a homecoming for Bryant, who was the Regional Vice-President of Western Ad Sales for Westwood One from 2009-2011.  An industry veteran, Bryant has more than 25 years’ experience in broadcast radio and television.   Prior to joining Cumulus two years ago, she served as Executive Vice President of Marketing and Sales for international cable channel CineMoi.  She also served as President/Market Manager of San Francisco for Clear Channel.  Bryant has been awarded the Radio & Records Industry Achievement Award for Market Manager/General Manager of the Year and was placed on Radio Ink’s Most Influential Women in Radio list for 2006, 2007, and 2014.

“Kim is a superb seller and a born leader,” said Steve Shaw, Westwood One President. “She will enhance the quality of our leadership team as we build the industry's foremost sales organization.

Adds Bryant, “The opportunity to get back to the west coast and to work with Steve Shaw and Westwood One again is a dream. The NY Cumulus experience—including the people I have worked with over the last few years--has been terrific; a real once-in-a lifetime opportunity. I am thrilled to continue to work for Cumulus in this different capacity and I look forward to having and building success in the West.”
