Jessica Burley, managing director of the National Magazine Company, is to leave the business early next year.
Burley, who has held several senior roles with NatMag since joining eight years ago, intends to step-down at the end of January to pursue other opportunities.
She said: ‘I have had a fabulous time at NatMag but I am ready to do something else. I plan to take some time to decide what I’m going to do next; there is significant change in the industry and the wider business environment that will provide new challenges and opportunities.
‘I will miss my colleagues at NatMag hugely; it has been an honour to work with such talented and creative people.”
