Vox Media co-founder joins Guardian Media Group board

Brundrett was chief operating officer at Vox Media until April 2022.

By Bron Maher

Trei Brundrett, a co-founder at Vox Media, is joining the board of Guardian Media Group (GMG).

In 15 years at Vox Media Brundrett served variously as vice president for products and technology, chief product officer and most recently as chief operating officer.

He stepped down from day-to-day leadership in April 2022, and has since been a senior advisor at the business.

Away from his work at Vox, GMG said Brundrett “provides mentoring, consultancy and advice to non-profits, and invests in and advises early stage media and technology companies and local journalism projects”.

Brundrett will join the GMG board as a non-executive director in July. Board chair Charles Gurassa said: “The Guardian has become a major player in the US news landscape and we have ambitious plans to continue that growth.”
