Robins and Wright will commence their new roles in early May, and will report directly to Spotify’s head of sales for Australia and New Zealand, Andrea Ingham.

Ingham said: “This year marks five years for Spotify in the Australian market. We have continued to experience solid growth with no signs of slowing down, and are thrilled to have talent of this calibre join the team.

“Australia is one of the top three programmatic audio revenue markets for Spotify globally. The Australian market has always been incredibly receptive to audio, and programmatic audio – our newest offering – is no different. There’s a huge opportunity for growth.”
