October 3, 2024 8:05

The Seven Network has moved quickly to announce its new news director of Brisbane and Gold Coast.

Only just after a week after Michael Coombes announced his departure after nearly 30 years with network, Seven has confirmed Walkley Award-winning journalist Erin Edwards for the position, starting in 2025.

Edwards will move across from Network 10 where she has worked as the executive editor for 10 News Queensland since June last year.

Prior to that, she spent 22 years at Seven as a senior journalist, working across Mackay, Townsville, Sunshine Coast and Brisbane.
