A successor, of sorts, to Bruce McWilliam has been confirmed for Seven West Media.
The Australian Financial Review reports Seven chief executive Jeff Howard has lured Emma McDonald, a sharp legal operator and daughter of former ABC chairman Donald McDonald, to take on the role.
She is currently Director of Impact Missions at Minderoo Foundation, having held several positions there since 2021.
She was previously Director of Public Affairs at ABC, Director of Business Affairs at ITV Studios Australia and corporate counsel at Fairfax Media and Austereo.
McWilliam recently left Seven after two decades and a string of successful legal cases for the network.
According to Mumbrella, McDonald’s role at SWM will differ from that of McWilliam
McDonald is scheduled to start in September.
