ARN have announced that Deb Clay will step-up to national news director, with Emily Hoskins departing the network.
The new role will see Clay responsible for Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth.
This appointment follows a national review of ARN’s news strategy and will provide a more streamlined format, in line with other key areas of the business.
Following the review and creation of the national news director role, the current position of news director for Melbourne and Adelaide is now redundant, and Emily Hoskins has left ARN.
“Emily has been with ARN close to 14 years and has made many great contributions over this time,” said ARN’s national CD Duncan Campbell.
Campbell added: “[Emily] is a passionate news person and has taken great pride in the level of news content Melbourne and Adelaide produces. I would like to personally thank Emily for all her hard work and commitment to ARN and wish her the very best.”
