Paul Genasi has announced he will be leaving News International “to take on new challenges”, after spending the last three years as head of advertising sales in Scotland.

In an email he said “I came to this decision some time ago after careful consideration, but leave the continuing development and success of the Scotland commercial team in the capable hands of Karen Sinclair who takes on a new role of Head of Advertising Sales. I'm sure you'll continue to support Karen and the commercial team in future.”

Prior to his role at News International, Genasi was commercial director at TalentNation and deputy advertising director at the Daily Record and Sunday Mail. He also spent seven years as advertising director and client services director at Newsquest Herald and the Times.

His replacement, Karen Sinclair, is currently head of display trading at NI, a position she has held for nearly five years.
