Virgin Media TV boss to step down this summer

April 24, 2020 12.11 Europe/London By Julian Clover

Pat Kiely is to step down as managing director of Virgin Media Television in July.

Previously commercial director of TV3, Kiely took over the role following the acquisition of the broadcaster in 2015.

Subsequently the Virgin Media Television channels have achieved double-digit revenue growth.

“Pat’s track record speaks for itself and in his more recent role as Managing Director he has truly transformed the business,” said Tony Hanway, CEO Virgin Media Ireland. “Pat leaves a proud legacy with significant content, commercial and operational initiatives in his tenure as Managing Director of our Broadcasting team.”

Pat Kiely Managing Director of Virgin Media Television added: “After 22 years with the business and a transformative last five years as Managing Director, I’ve decided it’s time to pass on the baton and take on a new challenge. Having been with the business in a number of roles since launch, celebrating great achievements and staring down some significant challenges, I am delighted to be leaving the business in such a strong position”
