Executive clearout at Fox Mobile

Executive clearout at Fox Mobile

CEO, COO and CMO all out.

The Fox Mobile Group has lost its CEO, COO and CMO in recent months, alongside significant staff layoffs, it has emerged.

According to MocoNews, CEO Mauro Montanaro left his post at News Corporation's mobile arm three months ago, although it was never officially announced.

COO Kaj Hagros and CMO Giovanni Montesanti have also apparently left the company, leaving EVP and CFO Mark Anderson in charge, with a newly appointed CMO Christoph Hoerenz.

Although Fox Mobile's main brand remains Jamba/Jamster, it has been planning new launches, including a US-based mobile content brand and a smartphone mobile video service.

However, it remains to be seen whether the executive clearout will affect those plans - with the content brand launch already having been delayed from its planned 2009 debut.
