EchoStar Hires Marketing VP

EchoStar Communications Corp. hired former MovieBeam Entertainment vice president of marketing Phil Klein, naming him to the same position at Dish Network.

Spokesman Steve Caulk declined to say whether Klein replaced anyone at EchoStar.

It’s likely that Klein will report to EchoStar executive VP of programming and marketing Michael Schwimmer. Caulk wouldn’t say who Klein reports to, noting that EchoStar “would not typically discuss our reporting structure.”
