Bec Sandys To Join Radio Hauraki As Day Show Host

New Zealand Media and Entertainment (NZME) has today announced Kiwi comedian and media producer Bec Sandys will join Radio Hauraki as the station's new daytime host. 

Sandys is no stranger to Radio Hauraki listeners, with stints on the station over summer and regular weekend appearances. She's also a familiar voice to sports fans through her cricket commentary on The Alternative Commentary Collective (The ACC). 

Bringing a background that spans comedy, events production, and other creative media projects, Sandys is known for her quick wit, energy and ability to connect with audiences. She also has strong ties to Canterbury, bringing a valuable South Island connection to Hauraki's listener base.

Todd Campbell, Radio Hauraki Content Director says: "Bec embodies everything Hauraki stands for - she's down to earth, sometimes irreverent and never takes herself too seriously. Her sense of humour and passion for great music make her the perfect fit for Hauraki - we're sure our loyal listeners will love to hear she's coming on board." 

Sandys says she's excited to officially join the station: "I'm stoked to be joining the Radio Hauraki whänau fulltime. I've been a listener for more than two decades, so stepping into the role of day announcer really is a dream come true. This station has a strong legacy and I can't wait to bring my own energy to the mix and connect with listeners right across New Zealand." 

Sandys will initially host from Christchurch, extending Hauraki's presence in the South Island before relocating to Auckland later this year.
