Extreme Reach said it named Brian Wallach as the company’s first chief digital officer.
Wallach had been GM and head of revenue at FreeWheel. In his new job he will oversee ERs next-generation digital video products and head development sales and operations.
He reports to Extreme Reach CEO Tim Conley.
“More than ever, marketers need a solution for managing creative assets and launching campaigns that provides full visibility into data and insights across every channel,” said Conley. “ER is uniquely positioned to support brands and agencies in the always changing omnichannel landscape. Brian has built his career on empowering clients across the buy- and sell-sides to maximize their linear and CTV advertising. His deep expertise in business development, sales, and operations, coupled with his passion for team growth and success, make him an excellent addition to the executive team as we focus on this priority area of our business.”

As advertisers and agencies learn more about the new ways that digital video and CTV can impact their business results, ER is in place to accelerate their future visions. I am delighted to be part of this incredible team.”
