LONDON - CBS Outdoor has appointed Sean Duffy to the newly created role of business director for Scotland to strengthen its position in the country.

Duffy, commercial director at broadcaster Scottish TV, will head the 12-strong division, reporting to UK sales director Maria Clarke.

CBS manages several major transport franchises in Scotland, including Stagecoach, First and ScotRail.

In England, it manages the £1.5bn ad sales contract for the London Underground and is close to securing a £60m internal advertising contract for Westfield London, the £1.6bn shopping centre due to open in West London this year.
