Manchester's biggest radio rivals have both appointed new marketing chiefs.
Century 105.4FM, which has now parted company with the PR arm of Precise Communications, welcomes Stephanie Barker to head a marketing team of three handling the station's brand marketing and PR in-house.
Previously employed by bmi british midland, she said: "Joining 105.4 Century FM is a fantastic opportunity for me. I am really looking forward to working with a relatively young but renowned brand within such an exciting industry."
Bolton-born Paul Coleman has been appointed marketing director of Manchester commercial radio stations Key 103 and Magic 1152.
Paul, 29, was a pupil at Mount St Joseph's School before graduating from Lancaster University.
He has worked for Emap Radio and became marketing manager of the two stations last April. Along with a position on the board of the company, he is responsible for the branding of the Key 103 breakfast show "JK and Joel At Breakfast."
Key 103 is flagship of the Emap Performance Network which has radio stations in Liverpool, Preston, Yorkshire, North East and London.
