George Ross Satornino is stepping into the role being vacated by Bill Condon at Comcast and Charter’s joint venture Xumo, The Desk has learned.

Ross Satornino’s title remains Executive Director of Content Planning and Acquisition, but he will absorb the responsibilities of Condon, who served as Xumo’s Vice President of Enterprise Sales and Partnerships until his departure this week, as first reported by The Desk.

Satornino reports to Stefan Van Engen, the Vice President of Content Programming and Partnerships at Xumo.

Condon is departing Xumo after six years with the company, which started as a free streaming television application before evolving into a multi-solutions provider of connected TV hardware and services as a joint venture between Comcast and Charter.

“After an incredible 6 years at Xumo leading both advertising and enterprise sales from the start-up phase through our Comcast acquisition and current joint venture with Charter Communications, I am filled with gratitude for the journey,” Condon said in a statement. “Working alongside passionate, knowledgeable, and empathetic individuals has truly been a career highlight.”

Editor’s note: An earlier version of this story said Satornino was promoted to the role of Vice President of Enterprise Sales and Partnerships, which was Condon’s title. A spokesperson later confirmed that Satornino is succeeding Condon, but his title will remain the same.
