Entravision Communications has parted ways with longtime President and Chief Operating Officer Jeff Liberman, ending a nearly 26-year run with the Spanish-language media company that owns 46 Spanish-language radio stations.

Liberman's departure closes one of the longest executive tenures in U.S. Hispanic radio. He joined Entravision Communications in 2000 following its acquisition of Latin Communications Group, where he had expanded operations from two stations to 17 across California, Colorado, New Mexico and Washington, DC.

He was named President of Entravision's Radio Division shortly after the acquisition and led the unit through a period of national expansion and digital transformation. During his tenure, the company launched the Entravision Radio Network, reaching 94% of the U.S. Latino market by 2014 through syndication efforts. He also established Entravision Solutions, a national representation firm designed to monetize broadcast inventory for partner networks.

Liberman advanced to Chief Operating Officer in 2012 and was appointed President and COO in 2017. In that role, he oversaw 98 media properties across 31 national offices, including television affiliates aligned with Fox, The CW and Univision, as well as dozens of Spanish-language radio stations.

According to his LinkedIn profile, Liberman centralized TV master control operations, generating $1.5 million in annual savings, migrated traffic systems to the cloud to strengthen cybersecurity protections, and led the launch of multiple podcasts and radio programs as part of a digital audio growth strategy. He also directed more than 270 weekly newscasts and helped guide expansion of the company's digital division through acquisitions and the appointment of a Chief Digital Officer.
