Following Alicia Pyke’s resignation as health and lifestyle editor at Yours magazine, Markeeta Waddington has stepped into the role.
Waddington, who has been a news and entertainment writer at Yours since August 2016, chatted with BD to tell us a little bit more about the position:
Could you tell us a bit about your background and where you were working before?
I have worked across beauty, pictures, news, entertainment and travel. My latest role was at Yours magazine as news and entertainment writer so I’m excited to be able to stay with the magazine I love!
What will your role at Yours entail?
My role at Yours will cover being across everything under the lifestyle umbrella from health and wellness to gardening.
How can brands and PRs best work with you in the future?
Brands and PRs can continue to pitch relevant and exciting client news to me so we can work together to produce the best possible content for the only Australian magazine for women aged 50 plus. Our readers love trying the latest trends and treatments in ways that work for them and we're all about pro-ageing so I'm keen to hear about products that really work for our demographic.
What are you most looking forward to?
I’m most looking forward to diving head first into Yours’ already great lifestyle section and continuing to deliver fresh and interesting news to our readers.
How can people get in touch with you?
People can get in touch by emailing me at mwaddington@bauer-media.com.au
