Media Company, NZME announces further expansion into the Australian market, with the appointment of Chris Rudd (main photo) as GM Australia and Customer Solutions. 

NZME is New Zealand’s leading multi-platform integrated media company with a portfolio of market-leading newspapers, radio stations, and digital platforms across more than 50 of New Zealand’s leading media brands, reaching 84 percent of Kiwis. 

Chris Rudd has been with NZME for 11 years and is currently GM Publishing (Commercial). Splitting his time across Australia and New Zealand, in his new role Rudd will be focused on new business opportunities and driving revenue growth within the company’s existing customer portfolio across the Tasman. 

He will work closely with NZME’s current Australian based team including Angie Russell, NZME’s GM Australia of direct and agency.

Greg McCrea, NZME’s head of agency sales said:  “NZME is expanding our presence in Australia and Chris will play a big role in not only managing our existing client and agency relationships, but also in driving new business for us. 

“The work Chris does in his new role will complement the excellent work our Australian team is already doing – helping build on their excellent results and drive further revenue growth for the business.

 “Having two senior, high calibre media industry experts in Chris and Angie being based in the Australian market really gives us a point of difference and allows us to engage further with our agency and client partners in Australia.”

Rudd said: “I’m really excited to help drive new revenue in the Australian market. There is massive potential as well as great learnings we can deliver back to our team in New Zealand now the borders are open.

“It’s also great to be able to work across the full NZME portfolio of platforms and represent the company over in Australia.”
