Joe Mack promoted to GatesAir CRO

GatesAir has announced the promotion of Joe Mack to chief revenue officer. As CRO, Mack will take ownership of global sales activities in his new role, with all regional sales leaders across APAC, CALA, EMEA and North America reporting to him. He will continue to report to GatesAir CEO Bruce D Swail.

“Joe has demonstrated a sharp sense of relationship building and customer commitment over his decades at Harris and GatesAir, which has resulted in record sales levels for our radio and television transmission businesses,” said Swail. “Above all, he has proven to be an exceptional leader over his career, with a diverse background in sales, management and engineering that has contributed to his success. We are thrilled to welcome Joe to this important new executive leadership role.”

A 35-year broadcast industry veteran, Mack has taken on roles of increasing responsibility over his 30 years at Harris Corporation and GatesAir. He was promoted to VP of sales, Americas upon the formation of GatesAir in 2014, following several successful leadership roles at Harris Corporation’s Broadcast Communications Division. In this role, he was responsible for all US spectrum repack sales efforts, which established GatesAir as the market share leader for broadcast transmission.

“I have had the pleasure of working with all current regional sales leaders at GatesAir over many years, and it’s an honour to now work and collaborate with them in a more direct manner as we sharpen our global go-to-market strategy,” commented Mack. “Having worked directly within the transmission business for 30 years, this is a business I am intimately familiar with and understand on a worldwide scale. I look forward to leading GatesAir’s global sales initiatives and building a foundation for our future business success.”
