Emma Alberici joins Compare the Market in comms and government relations role
Shortly after departing the ABC as part of the national broadcaster’s round of redundancies, Emma Alberici has joined insurance comparison website, Compare the Market, as chief strategy, government relations, and communications officer.
The former chief economics correspondent had a very public exit from the ABC, which ended up in the Fair Work Commission. She took aim at her employer of 18 years and its news director Gaven Morris in a series of since-deleted tweets, and promised she would no longer appear on TV because it’s “too painful to be in the public eye”.
“My psychologist, who I have been seeing every day since the ABC made my position redundant, says I am suffering anxiety,” she later tweeted.
