Nine has promoted Jo Clasby to the role of commercial director – publishing, where she will report to Nick Young.
She was previously director of client partnerships – publishing.
Her new role establishes her at the same level of seniority as Anthony Smyth, commercial director – radio.
Smyth was promoted at the start of this year.
In a note sent to staff, Nick Young, Nine’s director of sales – digital and publishing said, “I think it’s fair to say that while Jo has been with us only nine months, in that time she has made an outstanding contribution to the business overseeing the day to day sales publishing team, working the state sales directors implementing the commercial strategy, as well as the individual client leads across the mastheads.”
He described her as a “skilled operator” who has brought “both publishing and television sales insight to Nine”.
