Welling, who previously served as vice president and market manager for Cumulus Media’s stations in Shreveport and Bossier City, La., returns to the company after his most recent role as station manager and director of sales for Columbus, Ohio, Sports/Talk station 97.1 The Fan/WBNS-FM and the Ohio News Network. He also served as sales director for Cox Media Group in Tulsa, Okla. Welling succeeds Chris Monk, who is retiring at the end of January.
Bob Walker, president of operations at Cumulus Media, said, “We are thankful to Chris for the strong foundation he has built for our clusters in Flint and Saginaw and wish him all the best in his retirement. As we look to the future, we are excited to welcome Cody back to Cumulus to take our powerful brands to the next level. Cody is a passionate broadcaster dedicated to helping local businesses connect with our audiences and fully leverage the opportunities our traditional and digital assets provide.”
Welling said, “I’m excited to return to Cumulus Media, where I have many friendships and will be able to work with all the talented broadcasters, content creators and the entire team from Saginaw throughout the Great Lakes Bay Region and down to Flint. We have extremely strong properties, and I’m honored to serve these hard-working communities, engage our listeners and build results for our partners that trust these stations for joy and entertainment every day. I’d like to thank Bob Walker for his support, Mark Sullivan for his guidance and Chris Monk for making this a smooth transition before his retirement.”
