There’s a new SVP of West Coast Operations for Premiere Networks, the national radio arm of iHeartMedia. It’s a woman who will continue to oversee all programming operations from Los Angeles, “optimizing the company’s resources” to best serve its nationally distributed radio shows and services.
Earning the promotion from VP to SVP of West Coast Operations is Annie Zidarevich, who reports to President Julie Talbott.
As part of her role, Zidarevich manages Premiere’s team of broadcast engineers, not only at her home base of L.A. but also in various cities across the country. She also oversees all aspects of the company’s Network Operations Center and staff for the 24/7 operation. Additionally, she manages Premiere’s Southern California-based technical producers and associate producers.
Zidarevich until 2016 was Vice President of Network Operations for the FOX Sports Radio Network (FSR) and joined Premiere in 2000.
