Sunday Times City editor Oliver Shah has been promoted to business editor.
Shah has worked at the Sunday paper since 2010, starting out as a business reporter before being becoming City editor in 2016.
While working as a retail correspondent he was named business journalist of the year at the 2017 London Press Club Awards and the National Press Awards for his investigation into Sir Philip Green’s £1 sale of BHS.
Shah said: “I am excited and honoured to take on the best job in business journalism, and I look forward to helping deliver the ground-breaking investigations, scoops and in-depth features our readers love.”
