She will replace Sales, who has been the host of 7.30 for 11 years and will leave in June following the federal election.

Sales announced she would step down from the role in February, and said she intends to continue working with the ABC.

“I’m delighted to take on the presenter role at 7.30,” Ferguson told the ABC on Friday.
