Yahoo! Hires Ex-Microsoft Sales Chief

NEW YORK Yahoo! is shaking up its ad sales leadership again, replacing sales chief David Karnstedt with former Microsoft exec Joanne Bradford. Her mandate includes running all ad sales, as well as Yahoo!’s small business services and HotJobs.

Adam Grossberg, a Yahoo! rep, denied that Bradford is replacing Karnstedt, who decided to leave the company earlier this summer. While Bradford will assume Karnstedt’s responsibilities overseeing U.S. sales, her role as svp of U.S. revenue and market development will be broader than Karnstedt’s, he said.
