Following an extensive campaign to find a new CEO for Australia’s only LGBTIQ community radio station, Melbourne’s JOY 94.9 is excited to announce Ms. Tennille Moisel as the successful candidate.

With a background in executive management, corporate partnerships and community engagement, Tennille was the ideal candidate.

Formally the Festival Director of Melbourne’s LGBTIQ arts and cultural festival Midsumma, Tennille’s proven ability to operate strategically, develop corporate and community partnerships and manage stakeholder expectations, will drive JOY 94.9’s sustainability and future growth.

“I am absolutely thrilled to be joining the JOY94.9 team. I’ve been a listener of JOY for over 10 years and know first-hand how important JOY is to the communities it serves,” said JOY 94.9’s new CEO, Tennille Moisel.

In announcing the appointment, JOY 94.9’s President Jed Gilbert thanked Breed Barrett as Interim General Manager, the staff and 300 volunteers at JOY 94.9 who have ensured the station has continued to kick goals throughout the 94 Days of Summer, and broadcasting nationally for Sydney Mardi Gras.

“We are thrilled to have someone of Tennille’s calibre as our new CEO,” Mr Gilbert said. “I know our staff, volunteers and members will welcome Tennille into the JOY community, and will work well with her collaborative leadership approach.”

Tennille Moisel will officially commence her role as CEO of JOY 94.9 on Tuesday 26 April, 2016.

“It’s an exciting time for all forms of media and JOY is perfectly positioned to further engage and connect the LGBTIQ communities of Victoria, Australia and the rest of the world,” Ms. Moisel concluded.
