New Editor for Metro
Metro editor Bevan Rapson is leaving the role and will be succeeded by Simon Wilson, a senior writer on the magazine and former editor of Cuisine and Consumer magazines.
Announcing the change, ACP Media chief executive Paul Dykzeul said that the company was sorry to be losing Rapson, who has had 11 years at Metro and been editor since 2008.
“Bevan has decided he’s ready for a change and we wish him all the best for the future. He’s made a valuable contribution to Metro and the company.”
ACP was delighted to have appointed such a high calibre successor. “We have a terrific replacement in Simon Wilson, who has some exciting plans for the title.”
Rapson’s final edition as editor will be the June issue, out on June 7. Wilson will take over for Metro’s July-August Double Winter Issue.
