Natmags has announced that Duncan Edwards is to succeed Terry
Mansfield as managing director in March.
The appointment marks the end of a patient three year wait for Edwards,
who has been managing director designate since becoming deputy MD in
1998.
Mansfield, who joined Natmags in 1969, was expected to retire over a
year ago but has showed no signs of wanting to relinquish the Natmags
helm. He will take up a new role of president and chief executive, and
will continue in his temporary capacity of publishing director of the
affluent group - providing maternity cover for Lizzie Kershaw.
Frank Bennack, chief executive of parent company Hearst Corporation,
remains chairman of Natmags.
Edwards started his career in ad sales with Media Week before moving to
Natmags as ad manager of Company.
