RTÉ has announced Mari Hurley as the new Chief Financial Officer at the broadcaster.
Her appointment follows the resignation of former CFO Richard Collins from the broadcaster last October.
In a statement, RTÉ said Ms Hurley will take up her role in late summer.
Her previous CFO roles include AA Ireland, Premier Lotteries Ireland (operator of the National Lottery), Hostelworld and Sherry FitzGerald.
She is currently a non-executive director of NAMA and was a non-executive director at Ervia until August 2021, serving both bodies as chair of the Audit and Risk Committee and chair of the Credit and Remuneration Committees.
RTÉ Director General Kevin Bakhurst said Ms Hurley has extensive experience in setting and driving the strategic direction of global businesses.
He said her “broad corporate finance experience means she is skilled at embedding strong governance and controls in regulated businesses.
“Her proven deliveries in the development of systems for enhanced governance, control processes and provision of regular reporting, aligns strongly with RTÉ’s renewed mission around transparency, accountability and good governance.”
Ms Hurley said she was delighted to join RTÉ at a “critical time for the organisation and for the future of public service media”.
