Southern Cross Austereo moves national digital sales director Adam Furness to ‘best city in Australia’

Southern Cross Austereo’s national director of digital sales Adam Furness has been appointed director of sales across all of the Brisbane network’s regional television and radio, and metro radio.

A spokesperson for SCA Brisbane said “Furness is a Brisbane boy, and he’s moving back to the best city in Australia.”

The appointment comes 12 months after the Austereo Southern Cross merger and looks to be the first regional role after the creation of the national sales team announced in October, initially led by group national sales director Jeremy Simpson and now headed by Cathy Thomas after Simpson became GM of SCA Sydney.

The creation of the integrated sales team was rumoured to involve significant job losses.
