Key sales appointments at Pandora Internet Radio

Pandora Internet Radio is expanding its local operation with the appointment of former Macquarie Radio Network group sales manager Jon Stubley as national sales director and former sales boss at Spiral Media Shaun Alexander as account director.

The announcement:

Less than a year after its official launch in Australia and New Zealand, Pandora Internet Radio has appointed a National Sales Director and Account Director in Australia to drive the company’s commercial growth in the market. Jon Stubley and Shaun Alexander join the company in August, tasked with driving profitability of Pandora in Australia.

The rapid uptake and local popularity of the personalised radio streaming service has led to the expansion of the local operation sooner than anticipated, taking the next step toward growing Pandora’s commercial model in the region.  This includes building the local teams and establishing key business partnerships to establish and nurture a local revenue stream.
