Radio X in Belgium, the country’s only commercial English-speaking radio station, has appointed David Young as Sales and Marketing Director. His role will see him develop sales strategies aimed at growing advertising revenues and playing a pivotal role in seeing the station through an exciting transition from ‘on-line station’ over and onto Belgium’s brand new DAB+ platform, which is expected to reach the majority of Belgium, during 2015.



Coming from a programming background, Young, who has been an on-air Presenter, Programme Controller, Head Of Music and most recently Sales Account Manager at UK radio groups including UKRD, UTV and Bauer, is eager to take up his new role in the New Year.


Commenting on his appointment, Young said, “I'm delighted and excited to be joining the team based in Brussels in their early years. Radio X is a unique brand, they have a very strong proposition and I can't wait to explain the benefits of what we have to offer to the business market based in Belgium”. 


Radio X launched in 2012, and has been well received by the target audience since, growing the number of listeners and time spent listening during the last two years from Europe’s capital, Brussels. www.radiox.eu
