Skills
I'm offering
I have nearly two decades worth of experience in the media industry, covering a diverse range of areas including editing lifestyle magazines, such as Archant’s prestigious The Resident brand http://*******.**), managing a digital portfolio and a large team of editors and editorial assistants, and launching products to market.
During my time at Archant, I was responsible for managing P&Ls and working with commercial departments to ensure the profitability of any products launched. I take a lot of pride in the fact that I have learnt to be involved in all areas of a business: I was never just an editor, I also worked closely with the design department, production team and the commercial members of Archant's magazine division.
