Nine Audio announces new commercial team

Nine’s audio division has reshaped its sales operation, with a number of new hires and a strategic model that new sales boss Brian Gallagher says will ignite “a new level of competitiveness emerging from our commercial teams across the country”.

Gallagher, former chair of Boomtown and chief sales officer at Southern Cross Austereo, started at Nine Audio on July 1, as the network’s commercial director of audio. He will lead the new sales team.

Bolster’s head of media Jonathan Mandel will join Nine Audio as national head of digital sales in late September. He previously worked as head of digital operations for SCA’s Listnr.
