Beasley Media Group has promoted Lamar Smith to Director of Corporate Engineering.

Smith has been with Beasley since 2011 and previously held roles as Regional Engineering Director, Corporate Project Manager, and since 2018 Vice President of Engineering. His promotion coincides with the departure of Director of Technology Mike Cooney after seventeen years with the company.

Smith will remain based in Charlotte and will be responsible for overseeing all engineering activities across Beasley’s 57 radio properties throughout the United States.

“Lamar’s commitment, dedication and experience are exactly what we need as the organization continues to evolve and innovate into the future,” said Beasley Media Group Chief Executive Officer Caroline Beasley.

Smith said, “Many thanks to Caroline and the Beasley family for this incredible opportunity. I look forward to being able to lead the engineering division as the company continues to evolve for years to come.”
