The Australian Telecommunications Alliance has appointed Greg Spears as its new Head of Communications and Media.
Spears joins the industry body after more than seven years at NBN Co, where he most recently served as Executive Manager, Corporate Media. During his tenure, he led corporate media engagement and communications initiatives for Australia's national broadband network operator.
Before joining NBN Co, Spears held communications roles at Telstra, Vodafone and Stockland, building extensive experience across the telecommunications and corporate sectors.
Earlier in his career, he spent three years with Lewis PR, where he worked on communications programmes for technology clients.
At the Australian Telecommunications Alliance, Spears will oversee the organisation's communications and media strategy, supporting its engagement with government, industry stakeholders and the broader public on issues affecting Australia's telecommunications sector.
His appointment comes as the telecommunications industry continues to navigate evolving policy, infrastructure investment and digital connectivity priorities, placing greater emphasis on strategic communications and stakeholder engagement.
