Pacific Magazines’ publisher of weekly brands Fiona Legdin resigns
Legdin quits Pacific Magazines
Fiona Legdin, publisher of Pacific Magazines’ weekly brands including New Idea, has resigned from the magazine publisher with CEO Peter Zavecz to take over her responsibilities until a replacement can be found.
Her departure was announced to staff via an email from Zavecz, in which he said: “In recent years Fiona has steered some of our most profitable titles on their journey to become leading multi-media brands.
“Across New Idea and That’s Life! we now have combined monthly audience impressions in excess of 7 million.”
Monthly audience impressions of 7m. What does that mean?
A huge loss to Pacific. One of the most professional and commercially astute publishers in Australia. Good luck Fiona, wherever you go!
Fiona has been endlessly helpful to us as we launched a start-up venture in association with PacMags. We greatly valued her input, dedication, hard work and canny ability to make things happen.
Thank you Fiona, and best of luck.
