Paul Caine is leaving Bloomberg Media after two years as global chief revenue and client partnerships officer to pursue “a new challenge,” the company said this morning.
Nat Ives of Advertising Age writes, “Caine, a former Time Inc. executive, leads the team at Bloomberg that sells ad inventory on Bloomberg TV and radio, Bloomberg.com and Bloomberg Businessweek.
“Chief Operating Officer Jacki Kelley, who joined the company shortly after Mr. Caine and to whom Mr. Caine reported, will assume his duties on an interim basis, Bloomberg said.
