Wesley Petersen Email & Phone Number

I’ve been in the media industry since 2000, when I completed my internship in the Kfm Radio newsroom under the guidance of news editor Aden Thomas. Since then I have covered many positions within the radio news environment and broadened my skillset to incorporate digital news gathering and reporting. I took the opportunity to forge a new path as the EWN newsroom’s first dedicated sport reporter. I later became Primedia Cape Town’s first sport editor, before taking on the task of managing a team across the Cape Town and Joburg newsrooms as Primedia Group Sport Editor. I welcomed a return to news as an EWN desk editor and news anchor in 2013. My radio news experience, eye for detail, versatility, range of skills, ability to mentor and energy are some of my key strengths.

Listed skills include Editing, Social Media, Media Relations, Journalism, and 7 others.
