Former radio boss takes top media sales job at ITV

3 Jun 10 - 12:00AM
Fru Hazlitt, the former chief executive of commercial radio company GCap Media, has been chosen as the new managing director of commercial and online at ITV.

She will take up the newly-created media sales job in August and will be tasked with bringing together the broadcaster's TV and online businesses.

Ms Hazlitt, who has also worked as the UK managing director of Yahoo!, will replace Rupert Howell, who left his post as managing director of brand and commercial at ITV last week.

However, unlike Mr Howell, she will not sit on the ITV board, which will be smaller going forward.

Commenting on Ms Hazlitt's appointment, ITV chief executive Adam Crozier said: "Fru's background in general management, her proven commercial skills and her online experience with Yahoo! make her the idea candidate for this pivotal role."

Mr Crozier, the former boss of Royal Mail, took up his own role at the broadcaster earlier this year, replacing Michael Grade.
