PJM announced today it has appointed Susan Buehler as chief communications officer to oversee media relations, employee communications and the RTO’s website. She replaces Ian McLeod, who retired last month.
Buehler is a former executive vice president for Bellevue Communications, a Philadelphia public relations firm, where she developed media, public relations and government relations strategies for clients including Citizens Bank, Campbell Soup and McDonald’s.
Before that, she was an Emmy award-winning television news reporter and editor at Fox News and worked in communications for Exelon’s PECO Energy. She holds a bachelor’s degree in broadcast journalism from Syracuse University.
“Susan’s career in strategic communications and broadcast journalism brings a new perspective to reaching our stakeholders,” said Nora Swimm, senior vice president of corporate client services. “Her experience helping large firms achieve their communications goals coupled with her keen awareness of what resonates with audiences will enhance PJM’s approach to communicating.”
