Seven West Media elevates Bart Atkinson and Siahn Nardi to key sales roles
Seven West Media has announced two new appointments to its leadership team, with Bart Atkinson named Digital Sales and Growth Director and Siahn Nardi appointed Head of Agency Sales.
The promotions follow recent changes to the team’s leadership structure, including Dennie Chung’s appointment as Operations Director of Advertising and Tash MacNeill preparing to take parental leave.
Atkinson brings more than a decade of experience across digital media, programmatic and commercial strategy. He has been a driving force behind the digital growth of The West Australian, The Nightly, and The Game in his most recent role within SWM’s marketing team. Known for his data-led thinking and collaborative style, Atkinson is passionate about creating meaningful outcomes for clients.
“I’m really excited to get started — this role brings together everything I’m passionate about, digital growth, great storytelling, and working with talented people to make big ideas happen. I’m excited to help shape the future of media in WA,” said Atkinson.
Nardi will step into the Head of Agency role in August, while Tash MacNeill is on parental leave.
A highly regarded member of the SWM team for more than four years, Nardi has consistently demonstrated strategic acumen, leadership and drive across several key roles within the business. Most recently, she has played an instrumental role in shaping agency strategy and strengthening partnerships in her position as Senior Account Manager.
“I’m incredibly honoured to step into the role of Head of Agency Sales at Seven West Media,” said Nardi. “The past four years have given me a deep appreciation for the team and the work we do. I’m grateful for the mentorship and support I’ve received and excited to continue building strong agency partnerships while delivering innovative client solutions in a dynamic media landscape.”
Both appointments reinforce SWM’s commitment to delivering comprehensive media solutions across broadcast, print and digital, while strengthening ties with agency partners.
Seven West Media, Chief Sales Officer, Brent Stewart, said: “Siahn is a focused and trusted leader who understands the market and our agency partners. Bart’s appointment strengthens our digital capabilities and future focus. Together, they bring the energy and expertise to drive real impact.”
As Nardi transitions into her new role, SWM is now recruiting for a Senior Account Manager. For more information or to express interest, please contact tash.macneill@wanews.com.au.
