This appointment is effective immediately, Smith reports to Beasley Broadcast Group President
Bruce Beasley.
Most recently, and following the retirement of Natalie Conner in June of 2014, Smith served as interim market manager of Beasley’s WXTU-FM and WRDW-FM in Philadelphia. Prior to that, he served as the director of sales for WXTU and WRDW, a position he attained in 2009.
Smith began his career with Beasley in 2003 as an account executive in the Beasley Broadcast Las Vegas cluster.
President/COO Bruce Beasley says, “As our Philadelphia situation changed, due to the recent asset exchange with CBS Radio, we recognized an opportunity to place our remaining Delaware Valley radio stations under the guidance of one manager. We were drawn to Matt Smith’s past accomplishments and loyalty to our Company, and to the innate leadership skills he possesses. Add to that his extensive experience in both the Philadelphia and Wilmington markets and we believe Matt to be a perfect candidate for this position.”
Matt Smith comments, “It’s an honor to be asked to serve in this new role. With WJBR, I feel like I’m coming home. Which in fact I am! Not only did I enjoy several years previously at the station as GSM, I was also born in Wilmington. Equally exciting is the opportunity to stay active in the Philadelphia market through the three AM radio stations. I’m very grateful to continue my career with Beasley Broadcast in these two familiar and vibrant markets.”
