Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) today announced it has appointed Dan Jackson to the role of Head of Audio Operations for SCA.
In this newly created role, Dan will lead SCA’s national team of broadcast engineers, software and project engineers who are working across SCA’s radio and audio delivery platforms.

And SCA is ensuring our customers can access our audio products when, where and how it suits them; via terrestrial, online, apps, audio home devices or any of the other emerging technologies.”
“I’m delighted that after a comprehensive search of the industry, we have been able to provide this senior opportunity to one of our own talented staff. I congratulate and welcome Dan to his new position.”
