Mike Dee (pictured) is leaving his fulltime role at Audacy as President of Sports and will immediately transition to a senior advisor to the company. He joined the company in 2017 after serving as President/CEO for the San Diego Padres. Previously, Dee served as President and CEO of the Miami Dolphins and Sun Life Stadium, and before that he was COO of the Boston Red Sox. In his new role as a senior advisor, Dee will continue to engage on behalf of Audacy on a number of partnerships and offer his expertise and counsel on certain key projects and initiatives.
Audacy President/CEO David Field said in a memo, "Over the past six years, Mike has made invaluable contributions to the company, deepening and enhancing our league and team relationships, forging landmark customer partnerships, and launching new content and monetization opportunities. During his tenure, Mike spearheaded our company's foray into the rapidly growing sports betting space, including his work establishing record-breaking, multi-year partnerships with FanDuel and BetMGM, acquiring BetQL, and the launch of the BetQL Network."
Additionally, Audacy Executive Vice President of Strategy and Corporate Business Development Tim Murphy will leave its leadership team. He's been with the company for 15 years and previously served as VP/Digital. Early in his tenure, he was the visionary behind WEEI.com. Murphy took over as Entercom Corporate's VP of Digital Strategy & Enterprise Platforms before he relocated to Philadelphia from Boston at the time of its merger. He'll remain with Audacy through the end of April to help with the transition.
