Multi-award-winning journalist Andrew Probyn has joined 9News as their National Affairs Editor.

Probyn brings three decades of experience as a reporter and an envious track record of breaking major stories to the Nine Network.

Probyn has twice been named Press Gallery Journalist of the Year, is a three-time Walkley Awards finalist, the winner of the Melbourne Press Club’s prestigious Golden Quill, and was named Western Australian Journalist of the Year in 2016.

“As National Affairs Editor, a new role for 9News based in Canberra, Probyn will bring an extra level of in-depth coverage to the team led by Chief Political Editor, Charles Croucher,” Nine’s National Director of News and Current Affairs (Broadcast) Darren Wick said.

Probyn has said he was eager to join the 9News team.

“I’m delighted to be joining Nine’s powerhouse Parliament House bureau. At a time when the need for reliable, trusted and agenda-free news has never been greater, I look forward to working alongside Charles Croucher and some of Australian journalism’s best.”

Probyn will start with the network next month.
