Longtime Nettwerk Music Group SVP/Promotion & Streaming Strategy Jeff Ballard has exited after almost 20 years with the label. Ballard started at Nettwerk in 2005 and was upped from VP/National Radio Promotion to SVP/Promotion & Streaming Strategy in 2017.

Ballard says, “I’m deeply grateful for the journey — from leading global streaming strategy to shaping artist campaigns across radio, digital platforms, and international markets. But more than anything, I’m thankful for the people: colleagues who became lifelong friends, artists who inspired me daily, and partners who made the work both impactful and fun. Nettwerk has been home for most of my career, and I’ll carry the lessons, memories, and relationships with me always. I’ve had the privilege of growing alongside some of the best in the business, and I leave with nothing but respect and appreciation. After a well-earned month to reset and recharge, I’m ready to dive into what’s next. I’m excited about the possibilities ahead — continuing to build strong partnerships, drive strategy, and put my experience to work in meaningful ways – whether within or beyond the music industry.”
