Publishing group Future has appointed former BuzzFeed president Jon Steinberg as its new chief executive.
The Bath-based media organisation, which has a portfolio of online and magazine titles such as FourFourTwo , The Week and Total Film , said Mr Steinburg would join the company in April. He will replace Zillah Byng-Thorne, who announced her intention to stand down last September.
Future said Mr Steinberg, who played a key role in the development of digital media giant BuzzFeed’s business model, had “a strong track record of innovation, scaling media groups and creating value”.
