You may recall that Cumulus Charleston Market Manager Sherry Dollar passed away in July after battling breast cancer. Eric Mastel is moving from his Market Manager position in Savannah, to Charleston, to take over that cluster which has five stations. Mastel has been running Savannah for Cumulus for the past eight years.
Before joining Cumulus in 2011, Mastel was President of Max Media for 12 years and was also Vice President/Market Manager for Entercom in Virginia Beach.
Mastel said, “I would like to thank Mary Berner and Bob Walker for affording me this fantastic opportunity. There is a great team in place that knows nothing but success in Charleston. We had a great 8-year run at Cumulus Savannah, achieving many milestones. While I am saddened to be leaving the team, which is more like family, I know that Gigi South (see next story) is the right person to help that business continue to surpass its goals and raise their ceilings. I am looking forward to this exciting new chapter in my career.”
