The former editor of Building magazine, Adrian Barrick, has been made chief executive of United Business Media’s Built Environment division – part of CMP Information.
The move follows the exit of CMPi chief executive Gary Hughes in July when he was made redundant after a restructuring of the business.
The “delayering” process reorganised CMPi into four “market-focused” businesses – each with their own chief executive.
Barrick worked as a journalist for 20 years writing for property and building titles, and spent eight years as editor of Building magazine.
