Mick Raisin has been appointed General Manager at 7HOFM, replacing Colin Taylor who leaves Grant Broadcasters in late July, after 13 years with the company.
 
Mick has a long commercial radio history with his most recent position in Mt Gambier as General Manager of the now named Hit96.1 and Triple M and says, “I’m absolutely delighted to be joining Grant Broadcasters and to be given the opportunity to lead such an important station within the Grant Broadcasters stable.”
 
“My wife and I have had a long-held desire to relocate to Hobart, so the opportunity to combine my love of Tasmania with my love for radio was an opportunity too good to miss”.
 
Chief Operating Officer of Grant Broadcasters, Rick Lenarcic says, “I have had the pleasure of previously working with Mick over many years and there is no doubt he will bring a life time of experience and media knowledge to the Tasmanian team. We welcome him to the family business”.
 
 

Executive General Manager of Tasmanian Broadcasters, Tim Holder, noted that “7HOFM was fortunate to be able to attract an executive the calibre of Mick to lead this important capital city station. Maintaining our dominance in Hobart remains our key priority, ensuring we engage our audience and deliver strong results for our advertisers.”
 
7HOFM won the 2018 Xtra Reseach survey, again taking the number one position for the commercial radio station most listened to.
 
Mick Raisin formally takes over on 8th July.
