Ben Jones to leave Absolute
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 10 May 2011
Ben Jones has announced he will leave Absolute Radio, where he presents the evening show, at the end of July to pursue new projects, including hosting TV coverage of an unnamed major music event. Jones has been with the station for a decade, joining what was then Virgin Radio in 2001. Absolute plans to mark his departure by re-broadcasting some of his best bits from the last ten years.
Confirming the pending departure, Absolute COO Clive Dickens is quoted by Radio Today thus: “Ben Jones is an exceptional, experienced broadcaster. He has made an enormous contribution to the station and is going on to great things. We wish him all the best for the future”.
Jones himself added: “I will always look back with nothing but great memories of my time at Golden Square, I have done some wonderful things, met some incredible people and worked with the best the industry has to offer”.
