SCA podcast chief departs: Listnr’s Grant Tothill on why he’s leaving now and what’s next

The key executive who led the podcasting team for the last decade at Southern Cross Austereo, Grant Tothill, is walking away from his role as executive head of Listnr operations and audience.

As Mumbrella recently reported, Tothill, formally executive head of Listnr’s audience and growth had his role tweaked earlier this year. That expanded his remit to cover content, commercial, and operations.

Tothill reported to SCA chief operating officer Stephen Haddad, who oversees the Listnr operation.

Tothill explained to Mumbrella — in his only interview about the big move — that his decision to pull the plug was all his own. He denied it was linked to the recent SCA/Seven West Media merger proposal.
