Streem adds Seven’s Jack McLintock to lead media outreach
Realtime media monitoring company Streem has appointed former Seven West Media corporate and government affairs manager, Jack McLintock, to the new role of media relations manager.
McLintock also has prior experience working in federal politics. He will report to Conal Hanna, who joined Streem in early 2019 and now moves into a new expanded role of corporate affairs lead.

Streem has accelerated its growth in the past 12 months, adding a significant number of customers and, finalising an enhanced Copyright Agency agreement, all while preparing to launch new products later this month.
Streem CEO Elgar Welch said McLintock’s media industry and corporate affairs experience was a key factor in his appointment.
“There’s two big things happening at Streem. We’re hiring more people from the industry we service. And that’s being driven by rapid growth in the rest of the business, which means how we position Streem, recruit and keep our teams up to date becomes even more essential.
“Jack has a strong record of successful communications and corporate affairs management, and his experience in the media industry stands him in good stead.”
McLintock said he was drawn to the role at Streem because of its reputation as an innovator.
“Streem is known throughout the communications industry as the go-to for media monitoring, insights and reporting, which is why it’s continuing to capture a greater share of the market,” he said.
“I’m looking forward to combining my media industry experience and knowledge with the second-to-none data and insights that Streem provides, to help supercharge our brand and presence in the market.”
McLintock is the latest in a string of recent appointments that includes Anushka Aghaian joining as product lead in February and Hayley Beullens coming on board as digital marketing lead in March.
Streem’s clients include Telstra, Qantas, IAG, the Commonwealth Bank and the Prime Minister’s Office.
