7digital promotes Paul Shannon
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 31 July 2014
7digital has announced the promotion of Paul Shannon to VP Of Technology. He replaces the departing Rob Bowley.
Says 7digital CEO Simon Cole: “I’m really pleased that we have very quickly been able to promote from within and with such immediate success. It shows the strength of the team that Rob Bowley built for us here at 7digital and for that and all his dedication we thank him and wish him well”.
Shannon added: “I’m tremendously excited to take on this new role and overwhelmed with the support from both 7digital’s senior management team and technology team. My initial plan is to develop a technical strategy team formed of existing group members allowing them to get more involved in the direction of our team and API platform. I’m particularly looking forward to the new opportunities we’ll find in digital music and radio, and want to make cutting edge technology the forefront of all our new adventures.”
Shannon was made Assistant VP Of Technology at 7digital in 2012, having originally joined to lead the company’s content ingestion team in 2011.
