Joshua Jones departs ARN’s iHeartRadio

iHeartRadio’s customer loyalty and insights manager, Joshua Jones, has departed.

Jones had been with Australian Radio Network (ARN) for over five years.

Prior to his time in audio, he’d held marketing roles at Samsung, News Corp and Westfield.

His departure comes as ARN readies for a shake-up of iHeartRadio Australia’s strategy, which Radio Today understands includes a looming staff announcement.

Earlier this year, iHeartRadio Australia’s chief operating officer Geraint Davies was stood down as part of COVID-19 cutbacks, however he didn’t return to the business once it stopped tapping into the JobKeeper stimulus program.

Radio Today understands, however, that Jones’ departure is unrelated to any restructure.

He simply resigned to join Airtasker as a CRM manager.

ARN is currently recruiting to fill the role.
