Scott Armstrong, formerly with Corus Entertainment and Rogers Broadcasting, has been named regional cluster manager for Vista Radio’s Timmins Group. Armstrong will be responsible for stations in Timmons, Kapuskasing, Cochrane and Iroquois Falls. His first official day was Sept. 26 but he’ll begin at the Timmins station October 3. Pete Montana, formerly GM/GSM, has assumed the newly created Timmins Group regional cluster PD role. Former overall Ontario North regional manager Peter Hobbs will now serve as regional cluster manager for the company’s North Bay Group, which also includes Sturgeon Falls, Elliott Lake and Espanola. Ryan Griffiths who was the Ontario North PD will now serve as regional cluster PD for the North Bay group. The realignment is intended to allow both teams to best serve their respective markets.
