Melissa Verner Green.
ARN has appointed Melissa Verner Green director of sales for Melbourne, returning to the company after more than a decade at Meta Australia.
Verner Green brings more than two decades of experience across media, digital, technology and advertising, with previous roles at Fairfax, ARN, SCA, Nova and Meta. At Meta she led large-scale adoption of AI-driven marketing, first-party data integration and measurement solutions with major agencies and clients.
Richard Hunwick, ARN chief sales officer, said Verner Green was one of the most respected commercial leaders in media.
"Her passion and deep domain experience in radio, and her depth of digital experience is a powerful combination. Her unique skill set will be an enormous asset to our team and our clients," he said.
Verner Green said radio was her first love and the time felt right to bring her two worlds together.
"ARN's plans using radio, live streaming, podcasting, social and digital video are exciting, and representing the KIIS, GOLD and iHeart brands through this next phase of growth is a fantastic opportunity," she said.
