Page originally worked for NXFM announcer and then moved to SAFM. On 6 December 2009 Page moved to Sydney's 2Day FM,[1] following the top rated Kyle and Jackie O Show. Page has filled in for the duo.[2]

Page hosted the national chart show Hot30 Countdown across the Today Network. He and co-host Charli Delaney debuted on 15 March 2010 after successfully filling in for the regular hosts as well as a temporary nighttime show on both the Fox FM and 2Day FM from August to November 2009.[1] This led them to host a new Saturday night program entitled Party People, which began broadcasting in December 2009 and was heard nationally.

In 2011, Chris joined Triple M Sydney's The Grill Team. On 15 January 2019 the Grill Team was replaced with Moonman in the Morning and subsequently morphed into Triple M Breakfast with MG Jess and Pagey after the departure of Lawrence Mooney from Triple M.

After missing four weeks on his breakfast show, Page announced on air on 9 August 2021 that he had spent the past month in rehab, opening up about his addiction to alcohol. "There’s a stigma around rehab", he said. "If people can’t be open about it then no one’s going to talk about it and then that stigma grows".[3]

On 5 October 2022, Chris announced he was leaving Triple M at the end of the year,[4] he was MIA for the last month of the show. On 24 November, it was announced the Triple M Breakfast was being axed[5] with the final show being broadcast on 25 November with Chris re-joining the show for the final time. Later that day it was announced the show was being replaced with Mick and MG in the Morning,[6] seeing Mick Molloy return to Triple M after a year away from radio.

In May 2024, Page joined the KIIS Network as host of weekend breakfast.[7]
