Exterion Media, Europe’s largest privately-owned Out-of-Home (OOH) company, has announced the appointment of Alex Russell as Client Sales Director and Sharon Wright as Head of Digital Sales.
These appointments follow that of Nigel Clarkson, Exterion Media’s new Chief Revenue Officer, and we are told, signals Exterion Media’s ongoing investment in driving commercial growth.

She comes from Zenith where she was Planning Director and has previously held roles at ESI Media and Channel 5.

Nigel Clarkson told us “Alex and Sharon are joining at an exciting time for the company as we ramp up our strategy to drive commercial growth and collaboration across teams – we’re thrilled to have them on board. Sharon is joining at a crucial point in DOOH’s evolution and will be playing a vital role in our digital strategy as our digital capabilities and products continue to grow apace. Also, with media agency and media owner experience, Sharon is another great hire in the digital space – following Andrea Marsh’s appointment in January as digital transformation director.”
