Stefan Schellhas
iHeartMedia announced today that Stefan Schellhas has been named Market President for Cincinnati, effective immediately. He will report to Dave Carwile, Division President of the Midwest and Southeast for iHeartMedia.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Stefan Schellhas as the new Market President for iHeartMedia Cincinnati,” said Carwile. “Stefan brings not only a strategic vision and proven leadership, but also a deep-rooted understanding of the Cincinnati market. Having spent years building relationships and driving results across the region, he knows the pulse of the city and what resonates with our listeners and advertising partners. His passion for the community, combined with his commitment to innovation and team development, makes him the ideal leader to guide our Cincinnati brands into the future.”
Schellhas joins iHeartMedia Cincinnati from Sinclair, where he most recently served as the Vice President and General Manager of Local 12 News, Star 64, and CW Cincinnati, following an earlier role as Director of Sales. Schellhas began his career at WGRR-FM.
“My career started with an internship at 700 WLW, so returning truly feels like coming full circle,” said Schellhas. “While consumer media habits—driven by technology—have evolved exponentially, what hasn’t changed is that ‘content is king,’ and iHeart continues to lead the way in the audio space. I’m honored to work alongside such a passionate team here in Cincinnati, and together we’ll continue to serve our advertisers and the Greater Cincinnati community.”
