Tina McIntosh replaces Polly Stevens as MTV comms head

MTV Networks Australia and New Zealand has replaced outgoing marketing and communications director Polly Stevens with Tina McIntosh, who joins from The Movie Network.

Stevens, who has been at the music channel for more than a decade, and at MTV Networks Australia and New Zealand for 18 months, returns to the UK to go freelance.

Before The Movie Network, McIntosh’s career has included stints at EMI Music, The Television Corporation International, PBL Media and Emap Advertising London.

Rebecca Batties, GM, Music, Brands, MTV Networks Australia & New Zealand and Comedy Central, to whom McIntosh will report, said: “Tina is a real all-rounder, having worked across so many types of media. She is well poised to position and continue the momentum of the MTV and Comedy Central brands.”

“Tina will create and manage our marketing mix across on-air, online and on the ground, working closely with Ignite Media [MTV’s sales house] to identify marketing opportunities with clients. She will also engage with our platform partners including Foxtel and Austar to identify opportunities for channel exposure and promotion.”
