International out-of-home (OOH) advertising firm Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings has hired Craig Gangi as executive vice-president (EVP) and general counsel for its business in Canada and the U.S.
In his new role, Gangi is responsible for all Clear Channel North America legal matters, reporting to president and chief operating officer (COO) Suzanne Grimes and overall EVP, general counsel and secretary Rob Wells. His media and advertising industry experience includes past roles with Omnicom Media Group and AOL Time Warner.
“I believe in Craig’s ability to find legal solutions that will enhance our success and benefit our stakeholders,” says Grimes. “The complexity of the OOH industry in legal matters tied to real estate and municipal law makes the role of general counsel particularly important.”
