What does your job involve?

A typical week will see me attending events, holding meetings with the team to discuss content, replying to correspondence from our readers and drafting my opinion column.

I spend a lot of time thinking about how we can give readers as much value as possible in exchange for a subscription. Farmers Weekly has to help readers save a pound or earn a pound more, as well as being an enjoyable read. 

What’s your working style?

You’re probably best asking my team that!

I like to think that I’m pretty laid back, but I share their enthusiasm for doing the best for our readers each week. We are only as good as the last magazine, podcast or web story that we produce and that is a constant pressure that keeps us productive.

What is the most important aspect of what you do?

My most important job is to fix any issues that stop my team doing the best job possible. People also look to the editor to be the person that identifies when something is in need of change and finds a way to make it happen.
