About Russell
As most of you will know, Russell is the Editor-in-Chief of Marketing Week and the Festival of Marketing – the UK’s leading publication and flagship event for marketing. His background in reporting and editorial first lead to a reporting role at the magazine more than 15 years ago, followed by the News Editor and Editor-in-Chief roles.
As Editor-in-Chief, Russell is responsible for the content strategy of both Marketing Week and the Festival of Marketing brands across several platforms. He is a trusted authority on marketing issues, regularly hosting podcasts – including ‘Marketing Week Meets' and ‘Marketing that Matters’ – delivering keynote speeches and appearing on panels at many industry events.
