WORK HISTORY
Managing Editor, Techradar Pro @Future
Working across TechRadar Pro and other Future properties, my primary responsibility is to articulate ambitious commercial goals into a fully fledged editorial strategy that maximises existing content categories alongside developing new ones.I also manage the editorial team and their ongoing development, ensuring they have clear direction and maintain high standards whilst cultivating a wide network of high-quality freelancer writers/agencies, to increase Future’s editorial scale beyond the two sites that I oversee directly.I work very closely with other stakeholders - sales team, lead generation, e-commerce team - to identify commercial opportunities from all angles beyond a pure editorial point of view, and plan a course of action from ideation to delivery.
