In her new role, Bourne will be responsible for the creation, implementation and execution of Nine’s digital audio strategy.

In this role Bourne was responsible for the distribution and commercialisation of audio content across digital and social platforms.
Matt Cram, who held the role of head of digital at Nine Radio, has been appointed head of digital content and growth as part of the ongoing restructure. Nine Radio is still looking to hire a head of podcasts.
In January, Nine Radio promoted Anthony Smyth to a new role of commercial director of radio.
Nine is still recruiting for a head of podcasting, who will report to Bourne.
