Martyn Healy departs GMG in North East

GMG Radio’s Regional Managing Director in the North East has left, following a review of the group’s senior management structure.

Martyn Healy’s departure means GMG Radio’s Group Director of Sales, Alison Forshaw, will now be based at GMG’s Team Valley studio complex to manage the day-to-day running of the station.

Healy joined GMG in February 2010, having previously worked at other north east stations including Metro and Galaxy where he was national Brand Managing Director.

GMG Radio Group Managing Director Andy Carter said: “There is huge potential for growth for both Real Radio and Smooth Radio in the North East and I would like to thank Martyn for his professionalism and commitment over the last 18 months. He has worked hard to establish a consolidated team, focused on delivering a creative and engaged commercially successful radio business.”
