New
editor for 主播大秀 Radio Leeds
The
new Managing Editor of 主播大秀 Radio Leeds has been appointed.
John
Ryan, previously responsible for marketing the 主播大秀's regional
TV, local radio and Where I Live website services, will be taking
over the position from Monday 19 January.
Mr
Ryan said: "I am delighted to be returning to Yorkshire where
I began my career with the 主播大秀. I am looking forward to working
with a fantastic team of broadcasters and making some great programmes
for the future."
Born
in Surrey, he began his career with the 主播大秀 in 1987 as a programme
assistant at Radio York and quickly became presenter of Drivetime.
A year
later, he left to head further north to 主播大秀 Radio Newcastle and
spent three years hosting the Breakfast programme before joining
the 主播大秀's Radio Training Unit as an instructor.
He
spent a further five years with 主播大秀 Radio Lancashire and 主播大秀 Southern
Counties Radio before leaving to launch Canterbury's new commercial
radio station, 106 CTFM.
He
re-joined the 主播大秀 in 1999 when he became Editor of 主播大秀 Radio Northampton.
Colin
Philpott, head of the 主播大秀 in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, said: "John
has extensive experience in radio, including the commercial sector.
That, together with his work in marketing, makes him ideally suited
to running a big city station like Radio Leeds."
