Radio presenter Jules Lund has left the airwaves for a strategic role within Southern Cross Austero (SCA), while his co-host Emma Freedman starts a new national night show across the Hit Network.
Lund was previously presenting entertainment-news program The Scoopla show with Freedman, every night to a national audience.
SCA head of national content and development Dave Cameron says Lund will now be moving to a new role within the business.
“Jules Lund is a thought leader in the digital marketing space and move into a strategic role that allows SCA to capitalise on these strengths,” Cameron says.
“From consulting to the country's largest media agencies to directing branded content, Jules will help ensure SCA is future ready with innovation at its core.
Under changes to the network's schedule, Freedman will be co-hosting a new national night show with current presenting talent Angus O'Loughlin. In addition, O'Loughlin and Freedman will host the national Take 40 Australia show on Saturday afternoons.
Hamish & Andy's show will also be extended during the week with a new 'Deja vu Hour' aired between 6 and 7pm. It will cover off segments listeners may have missed earlier in the show.
“Having Hamish & Andy show content on air across the whole 4-7pm drive period, followed by the brilliant new national night time combination of Angus and Emma sets up an exiting 2016 for the Hit network nationally.”
Lund launched his own influencer marketing business, Tribe, in September last year.
