Rick Mackail joins Coastal Broadcasters as General Manager

Rick Mackail will join Coastal Broadcasters, and the Super Radio Network, as General Manager, starting Monday February 3. He will oversee 4AM, 4KZ, Cool FM, KIK and 4AY.

Rick had worked for Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) as their Cairns Sales Manager for the last six years with already established relationships with businesses across Coastal’s broad FNQ market. He replaces Rod Henshaw who said on his departure:

“I have thoroughly enjoyed working with each and every one of you. It’s been an absolute privilege and I am deeply grateful for the loyalty, support and friendship you have afforded me during my time here.

I wish you nothing less than every good wish for your future endeavours with the company. I firmly believe this is the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Coastal Broadcasters.”

Despina Priala and George Caralis, the joint owners and managing directors of the SRN, were appointed to the Coastal Broadcasters Board last October, taking control of network in early December and increasing their tally from 42 to 47 commercial radio stations across Australia. Rick will report to Despina, George and Group General Manager Graham Miles.
