NBCUniversal has a new chief financial officer, with Randy Culbertson being elevated to oversee the entertainment company’s finances.
Culbertson’s promotion was announced in a memo to staff Tuesday by NBCU COO Adam Miller and Comcast CFO Jason Armstrong.
Culbertson, who currently works as CFO and executive VP of operations for NBCU ad sales, will succeed Anand Kiri, who is exiting the role to become CFO of Comcast’s cable SpinCo, which is set to split from the company later this year. Mark Lazarus will be CEO of the new venture, while Miller is taking on an expanded role at NBCU as COO.

Randy will report directly to Adam in his new role and will be supported by an excellent Corporate team as well as the embedded business CFOs across the company. He will continue to support the Ad Sales business as we begin to identify internal and external candidates to fill his role.”
