After five years as editor-in-chief at ELLE Australia, Justine Cullen has announced she will be stepping down from the role.
Justine has been with Bauer Media for ten years, and has been praised for consistently developing unique ways to connect with her readers.
In a statement on her departure Justine said: “In ELLE we created a fashion magazine unlike any other on the Australian newsstand, one that questions the norm and champions the new, for a woman who cares about what she thinks and what she stands for just as much as what she wears.
“To have the honour of editing it at this powerful moment in time for all women has been a dream come true. But after twenty five years in publishing, ten years as an editor at Bauer and more than five years helming ELLE, the time has come to make the decision that feels right for me and my family.
“Thank you to everyone I’ve worked with over my career at Bauer, and especially to the wonderful ELLE team, in whose highly capable and talented hands I leave this brand that I continue to love so much.”
Following Justine’s departure, Genevra Leek will step up as acting editor-in-chief for ELLE.
