Westwood One today announced that Kelli Hurley, the company’s VP, National Partnerships and Digital Activation, Midwest, has been promoted to VP, Digital Sales for the network.

In her new role, Hurley will oversee all sales efforts for the company’s expanding portfolio of digital products -- including streaming audio, on demand, and podcasting -- and will continue to develop new content partnerships. She is based in Chicago and will report directly to Steve Shaw, Westwood One’s President.

Hurley has more than 10 years’ of network radio experience under her belt.

Westwood One is perfectly poised to be the top performer in the digital audio space and I am eager to lead the charge by tapping into our vast network of talent and content across sports, news, and entertainment.”
