The 2006 winner of the singing reality TV show will join the Wave FM breakfast show with Jade and Straney from September 14.
Radio broadcasting isn't new to Leith - he has been hosting the Power FM breakfast show in Muswellbrook for the past two years.
Both Power FM and Wave FM are owned by Grant Broadcasters.
"I love working at Power FM," Leith said, "but the time is now right to move to Wave FM and join the team in Wollongong. I have worked with Jade and Straney on a number of projects and the chemistry was great!"
Ryan Rathbone, Grant Broadcasters' Group Content Director said he was looking forward to Leith's arrival.
"We are delighted that Damien will be joining our highly successful Breakfast team at Wave FM," he said.
"We have absolutely top-quality talent across the group and it is always rewarding when, with the right training and support, we can offer these talented announcers' bigger opportunities."
