Nova appoints Ashley Earnshaw as new group commercial director

Nova Entertainment has appointed Nine’s former director of audio sales Ashley Earnshaw to the role of group commercial director.

Earnshaw announced his departure from Nine last month, after four years leading the company’s audio sales. He remains at Nine until the end of the month, as the company restructures its operating model. Prior to his stint at Nine, Earnshaw held senior leadership roles at Foxtel, Dentsu, Carat, and Essence Mediacom.

In this newly created role at Nova, Earnshaw will lead the network’s agency teams across Sydney and Melbourne, and take on national responsibilities for the broader sales team.
