In the newly created role, LeGrett will work closely with Chief Operating Officer Brian Beasley to help unify the company's business operations, with a focus on aligning revenue strategy, cross-platform partnerships, and digital growth initiatives.

"Kevin's deep experience across broadcast, digital, experiential, podcasting, and sports makes him uniquely qualified to lead our revenue strategy," said Caroline Beasley, CEO of Beasley Media Group. She cited his background in scaling platforms and teams at both national and local levels as the company continues to evolve its offerings.

LeGrett joins Beasley from iHeartMedia, where he spent more than 15 years in senior leadership roles. Most recently, he served as President of iHeartSports, overseeing the company's sports audio portfolio.

His earlier career includes senior roles such as Senior Vice President of Operations for regional markets, President of Political Strategy, President of Citadel Broadcasting, and Senior Vice President/Market Manager at Infinity Broadcasting.

"I'm excited to join Beasley Media Group at such an exciting time," LeGrett said. He pointed to the company's emphasis on local communities and its expansion across digital, streaming, and multiplatform offerings as key factors in his decision to join the organization.
