Pacific Magazines has today announced who will be taking over as editor-in-chief of New Idea: former WHO editor-in-chief Emma Nolan.
Pacific’s general manager, entertainment and family, Louisa Hatfield comments: “With a multi-platform footprint of more than five million every month, New Idea’s power to entertain and connect with a huge community of Australian women is stronger than ever.
“Emma has strong commercial credentials, great creative vision and a powerful reputation for growing brands. I couldn’t think of a smarter and more talented journalist to take the helm of our flagship brand and evolve it into the future.”
Nolan joined Pacific in September 2017 as editor of WHO. Since commencing the new role, she has overseen the launch of ‘WOMEN WHO’ a video-led campaign in partnership with Holden to recognise inspiring Australian women and next week will unveil WHO’s first pop up magazine. Nolan was previously editor of TV WEEK.
Nolan said: “This is such an exciting time for New Idea and I look forward to making a key role in the brand’s continued multi-platform growth. The opportunity to work with the incredibly talented and creative team here is a privilege.”
A recruitment process is underway to find a new editor for WHO.
