Beth Buehler Named Hearst Vice President of Operations

Hearst, one of the nation’s largest diversified media, information and services companies with more than 360 businesses, announced today that Beth Buehler has been named vice president of operations, a new role. The announcement was made by Hearst President and CEO Steven R. Swartz and Hearst Chief Operating Officer Mark Aldam. Buehler begins her new role on July 2 and will report to Aldam.

“Beth’s experience leading operations and strategy across business functions will be instrumental in our efforts to collaborate more effectively across the corporate boundaries and bring more value to each of our operating teams,” Aldam said. “Beth was a key contributor during the integration of Rodale into Hearst earlier this year and she will be a great partner to our leaders across the company.”

Beginning in 2016, Buehler served as the chief operating officer for Rodale, where she oversaw the company’s P&L, championed the transformation of its e-commerce and direct mail operations and ultimately led the sale process of the business to Hearst. Buehler joined Rodale in 2014 as the senior vice president of digital, where she increased digital revenue across eight brands, and led product and software development and strategic digital partnerships, among other operations.

Prior to Rodale, from 2008 to 2013, she served in business operations roles at News Corporation (Dow Jones), for brands including the Wall Street Journal and MarketWatch.com. Early in her career, Buehler was a software developer at Agency.com, Lindblad Expeditions and an investment banking analyst at Atlas Advisors.
