New head of sales on board at Spark Media

15 Sep 2022

Spark Media is pleased to announce a new addition to our leadership team. Chris Halstead, previously a business unit head in our team, has been promoted to head of sales, a significant addition to our leadership.

Chris Halstead

Chris is a leader with years of experience in working with blue-chip organisations across South Africa. "With formidable experience and insatiable appetite for success, Chris is an ideal leader for our growing team. "He will undoubtedly be pivotal in helping Spark Media achieve and exceed our ambitious growth plans," Rob Fedder, group executive.

Spark Media is a progressive company with a bright future. The leadership skills and expertise that Chris possesses, positions him perfectly to drive growth within the company and work with the best in the industry.

His proven track record of consistently exceeding business objectives with passion and precision will help Spark Media achieve its aggressive sales goals and continue being an advertising staple in South Africa.

A quote from Halstead’s favourite poem IF by Rudyard Kipling: “If you can fill the unforgiving minute with 60 seconds’ worth of distance run, yours is the earth and everything that’s in it and, which is more, you’ll be a man my son.”
