Glen Killane Departs as MD Television at RTE
2016-07-07 15:39 :
Glen Killane has announced his departure from the organisation to take up a new role with telecom group eir.

He will head up the company's TV business, including the recently rebranded eir Sport (formerly Setanta sport) as well as all sports related sponsorships.

Eir launched itself into the television market three years ago, however earlier this week it announced a significant increase in it's broadcast offering after it announced that its TV sports pack would be made available to all its broadband subscribers. Eir sport has also secured the exclusive Irish rights to the 2019 Rugby world cup.

The move is a significant coup for the company as Killane had been one of RTÉ's most senior executives and had been considered one of the front runners for the Director General position which went to the former president and managing director of Discovery Networks Northern Europe, Dee Forbes.
