RSMB Appoints Media Researcher Chris Mundy as CEO

In London, media researcher RSMB has appointed Chris Mundy as Chief Executive, following Steve Wilcox's decision to step aside from a full-time role at the company.

Jointly owned by Kantar and Havas, the firm was established in 1987 and now counts broadcasting bodies BARB and RAJAR among its major clients. Mundy (pictured) will join from TV ad pre-approval business Clearcast, where he currently serves as MD. Prior to this he was Head of Audiences at the BBC, Head of Research at Sky, and Head of Research at Eurosport. He began his career at Scottish Television before joining Carlton TV as Research Manager.

As soon as he has completed his agreed notice period at Clearcast, Mundy will take over as CEO, with Wilcox then continuing as Vice Chairman on a part-time basis. Chairman Peter Thomas comments: 'We are pleased that, after an extensive international search, RSMB is able to appoint Chris as the company's next Chief Executive. He brings long experience in audience research and analysis, as well as a proven track record at Clearcast in running and growing a market leading business'.
