Former White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs is joining Warner Bros. Discovery as the communications chief for CEO David Zaslav, the company announced Tuesday.

Gibbs, who served as former President Barack Obama’s press secretary from 2009-2011, will begin his new role on Aug. 5, where he will “oversee WBD’s corporate and business communications as well as public affairs,” according to the company’s press release.

“At this transformative time in our industry, Robert is the right leader to assume this new, critical global role as we continue to grow the Warner Bros. Discovery brand and presence around the world,” Zaslav said in a statement. “Robert is an insightful and respected leader with experience spanning Fortune 500 companies, the White House, and winning political campaigns. He will be an invaluable part of the team as we create the most captivating stories and content for consumers around the world.”

Gibbs is currently a partner at Bully Pulpit International, a D.C.-based marketing and communications firm. He previously served as the global chief communications officer of McDonald’s from 2015-2019 and press secretary for former Secretary of State John Kerry’s 2004 presidential campaign.

“I couldn’t be happier to join Warner Bros. Discovery and to help tell the incredible stories of so many iconic brands across entertainment, news, and sports,” Gibbs said. “I’m particularly excited to work with the global team to fully and clearly capture WBD’s vision and communicate the meaningful growth potential in front of us.”

The company experienced losses of $3 billion last year and $7 billion the year before.
