Seven has announced the departure of Rachel Page as digital sales director.
A Seven spokesperson told Mediaweek the company wishes her success for the future.
“Rachel has made a great contribution to Seven since she joined us in May 2023,” they said.
“We are building and evolving our digital sales team to capitalise on and enhance the ongoing growth of 7plus and our other digital brands. In early September, we announced the appointment of Jordan King. He starts with us on 4 November as national digital sales director.”
King joins Seven from Nine, where he was director of programmatic and digital sales for three years. His previous roles at Nine include director of audience and automation and head of audience and automation. He has also held senior roles at Unruly and News Corp Australia, and is a member of IAB Australia’s Executive Technology Council.
Reporting to group managing director of Seven Digital, Gereurd Roberts, King will work with Seven’s sales and digital business leadership to define its future-focused go-to-market strategy, product portfolio, programmatic approach and tech stack.
Roberts said: “We couldn’t be more excited to welcome Jordan to the team. He is widely regarded as one of the best digital sales talents in the country and will play a leading role as we accelerate Seven’s digital growth and ambitions.
“With the onboarding of both cricket and AFL digital rights later this year, alongside our unbeatable slate of premium on-demand content, it is the perfect time to bring Jordan on board. 7plus is primed to deliver high-value audiences at scale, and Jordan will work to ensure that equals efficient and effective results for our partners.”
Before joining Seven in May 2023, Page was general manager, sales – AUNZ at Yahoo. She worked at Yahoo since late 2017 and previously held the roles of national sales director and sales director.
