Shaun Menegola resigns from Seven Melbourne

The Seven Network today announced the resignation of Shaun Menegola as Director of News, Seven Melbourne. His departure date has not yet been finalised and he will remain in his role for a transition period.

Mr Menegola said: "I have decided to call an end to my time here at 7NEWS in Melbourne.

"It's entirely my decision and one I've been thinking about for a long time. It's not one driven by anything else other than the fact that I'm looking to take a break to recharge and reboot - and to spend some time in my home state with family.

"I couldn't be prouder of what this team has achieved over the last five or so years, and of the bulletins we turn out every night.

"It's been a highlight of almost three decades running news bulletins and newsrooms," he said.

Anthony De Ceglie, Seven Network Director of News and Public Affairs and Editor-in-Chief, Seven West Media, said: "Shaun has made a remarkable contribution to Seven Melbourne and, before that, Seven Perth over many years and he will be greatly missed.

"He has been a driving force behind the success of 7NEWS Melbourne over the past five years and will leave a great legacy."

Mr Menegola's successor will be announced in due course.
