Taunton moves to the role from his current position as Managing Director for UTV Radio (GB). McKeown takes on the new responsibilities after the completion of the restructuring of its New Media arm to focus on broadcasting. Both appointments are with immediate effect.
The two moves come ahead of the company launching its television channel in the Republic of Ireland on January 1 2015.
