Former Say Media Editorial Director Kate Lewis has been named Chief Content Officer at Hearst, replacing Joanna Coles, who originated the role in 2016 and announced her departure earlier this week.

The selection was made by Hearst Magazines President Troy Young, who commented 'With her strong background in both [the print and digital] worlds, Kate is ideally suited to help our editors and producers take their products to the next level of excellence by finding new ways to collaborate'.
