Saint John Betteridge

The PPA and the entire media community were incredibly saddened to hear of the recent and sudden passing of SJ Betteridge.

Saint was a much loved and valued member of our community. He supported the PPA throughout the last 30 years across many of his senior sales and executive roles including being on the PPA marketing advisory board where he advocated for a fairer and more diverse media industry.

He always offered real leadership, believing in the value of coaching and mentoring teams, building life-long relationships with customers as well as being hugely successful across the many media businesses that he represented including Picnic, Unruly, Time Out, Dennis Publishing, Circus Street, Emap and IPC, and more recently helping to place the next generation of executives with The Media Exchange.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time and we wanted to share our condolences for such a well-loved member of our community. Anybody that worked with, or for, Saint would know him as a special person that made every day a little bit better and would go out of his way to help others and the industry that he loved.

A Go Fund Me page has been set up to support his family > https://bit.ly/43pIsTz
