Executive shifts at HMV
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 13 January 2011
HMV has announced a number of executive changes, with the promise of more to come in the next few weeks. So that’s all groovy.
Steve Napleton, currently Commercial Director, will take a new more focused role looking at the company’s online and ticketing businesses, while Gary Warren, who moved to a talent and content role atop HMV’s MAMA Group business last year, will move back to the retail side of HMV overseeing all the product teams.
The executive shifts follow those recent disappointing sales figures from the music and entertainment company, and the news 60 HMV and Waterstones stores will close in the next year.
