Job description

Posted Monday, 8 June 2026, 9:00 am

Why join us?

Southern Cross Media Group is Australia’s most prominent media companies, with a market-leading presence across television, audio, publishing and digital.

The company owns some of Australia’s most renowned media businesses and platforms, including the Seven Network and its affiliate channels 7two, 7mate, 7flix and 7Bravo; 7plus; 7NEWS.com.au; LiSTNR; the Hit and Triple M radio networks; The Nightly; The West Australian; The Sunday Times; and PerthNow.

About the Role

As General Counsel, you’ll be a key strategic partner to the business – leading the legal function, strengthening governance, and enabling growth while managing risk in a complex, highly regulated environment.

This is a critical role requiring strong commercial judgement and the ability to influence at the highest levels.

In this role, you will:

Act as a trusted advisor to the Executive team on legal, regulatory, commercial and reputational matters
Set and lead the enterprise legal strategy, aligned to business priorities and risk appetite
Support major strategic initiatives, including M&A, partnerships and transformation programs
Oversee corporate affairs and communications, ensuring clear and consistent messaging
Lead crisis management and issues response for high-profile matters
Provide guidance on media engagement while minimising legal, financial and reputational risk
Establish and embed regulatory, risk and compliance frameworks (including ACMA, ASIC and industry obligations)
Oversee complex commercial contracts and negotiations to drive strong business outcomes

We’re seeking a highly accomplished legal leader with strong commercial acumen and the confidence to operate at the most senior levels of the organisation.

You’ll bring:

Proven experience advising public companies, Boards and executive teams in complex, highly regulated environments
A strong legal foundation, ideally from a top-tier corporate law firm across governance, compliance and risk
The ability to translate complex legal issues into clear, practical advice for senior stakeholders
Experience leading legal strategy through M&A, transformation or significant regulatory change
Strong commercial judgement, balancing risk with opportunity to support growth
Experience managing sensitive media issues and high-profile stakeholder relationships
Knowledge of data privacy, intellectual property and media regulation (or similar sectors)
A track record of building and leading high-performing teams

This is a rare opportunity to shape the legal strategy of a forward-thinking media organisation at a pivotal moment of transformation, in a visible, high-impact leadership role.
