Fairfax Magazines New Editor has Unlimited
Potential
Caitlin Sykes will be a familiar
name to readers already, so the new editor of Unlimited is
in a great position to take the magazine into the
future.
New Zealand’s most forward thinking
business magazine, Unlimited will continue to inform and
inspire business innovators and leaders in the capable hands
of its new editor.
Sykes began working on the
magazine in 2005 as a writer and sub-editor. In 2007 she
was promoted to deputy editor and now has accepted the
enviable role of editor.
The position was hotly
contested by a large number of talented
applicants.
“We have seen some fabulous people
during the interview process but are delighted Caitlin has
accepted the editor’s position. Her established
relationship with the publication, creativity, outstanding
communication, organisation and intelligent writing skills
made her a hard contender to beat,” says Fairfax Magazines
general manager Lynley Belton.
An accomplished
writer, Sykes has predominantly specialised in the business
genré since returning to study and gaining her
post-graduate Diploma in Journalism from AUT in 2001. Her
business acumen balanced with humour and creativity is sure
to influence the magazine in positive ways.
“I am
a business feature writer who can spin a cracking yarn. I
love to seek out and generate new ideas along with the
creative process of putting a magazine together,” says
Sykes.
“We are excited to see Caitlin inject her
personality into the content and style of Unlimited,”
says Belton. “It’s a great product already but we are
always encouraging our people to think forward and evolve
our titles.”
Look out for Sykes’ first complete
issue as editor on-sale 6
August.
