Radio Traffic Team Leader (Northern)
CurrentManage a team of 3 staff that support the Sales team and schedules Radio advertising logs for the Northern NZ region, including training and mentoring of my team while ensuring that a high level of work is achieved in addition to looking after the Auckland Commercial teams and station logs. Upholding multiple standards and practices across multiple departments within NZME in regards to Trading Parameters while leveraging and maximising inventory performance while complying with BSA standards and providing the best sounding solutions for clients and listeners. In addition to the above tasks I also assist the National Traffic Manager with managing and testing traffic and broadcasting systems, inventory reporting and forecasting, product review and development as well as administration of Master Data for our Radio advertising products. I liaise with our Content and Commercial teams to make and revise the radio commercial clocks (break structures and timings) for all 145+ NZME stations nationwide. I have been able to develop multiple automated reports in Excel and process changes to improve our service and performance and am involved in systems changes and upgrades, providing testing and feedback to external developers and internal stakeholders as an SME on multiple projects.
