Pierluigi Gazzolo
Pierluigi Gazzolo, who was appointed to the newly created role of president of Univision Communications Inc. and Chief Transformation Officer, is in charge to drive the next era of growth.
Gazzolo will lead to Univision’s transformation and growth efforts. He will be responsible for overseeing the future streaming business and cross-functional collaboration among different business units at Univision and setting the culture to achieve this next era of growth for the company.
Gazzolo will lead the immediate shift toward a more innovative, entrepreneurial, and collaborative Univision business that will be necessary to meet the Company’s strategic long-term objectives.
Supporting Gazzolo in these efforts will be Sameer Deen, Chief Digital Officer; Margaret Lazo, Chief Human Resources Officer; Rosemary Mercedes, Chief Communications Officer; and Adam Shippee, in a newly created role of EVP, Corporate Development, Strategy, and Transformation, each of whom will report directly to him.
Gazzolo brings deeply relevant experience from his previous roles at ViacomCBS, where he served in a number of capacities from Chief Operating Officer of Viacom’s International business to most recently as President of Streaming and Studios for ViacomCBS Networks International, where he was hand-selected by the CEO to lead Viacom’s similar transformation from a linear provider into a world-class digital-first media company.
