Tribe ramps up sales efforts with hire of Nick Randall and Sammy Lewis

Influencer platform Tribe has hired media sales heavyweights Nick Randall as its chief revenue officer and former HuffPost commercial director Sammy Lewis as sales director.

Randall is a former sales boss of Fairfax Radio Network, and took charge of the sales operation of Macquarie Media when Macquarie Radio Network and Fairfax merged their radio assets in 2015.

Earlier in his career, Randall also ran Southern Cross Austereo’s sales operations. Most recently, he spent just over a year working with podcasting startup Whooshkaa.

Sammy Lewis spent four months as commercial director at HuffPost late last year before most of the staff were made redundant when the joint venture with the US owners and Fairfax Media was axed. Before that she was a sales manager for REA Group.
