Editorial Change-Up at Pac Mags

Pacific Magazines has announced a proposed restructure for its Young Women’s titles Girlfriend and Total Girl, with respective editors Sarah Tarca and Amanda Nicholls continuing in their roles while some editorial staff will work across both brands.

Other editorial roles will remain specific to their title.

Both editors will work with the editorial team across print and digital. Mychelle Vanderburg will continue as Publisher.

“While each title is successful and has a clear positioning, there are efficiencies in bringing the editorial into a shared unit, where there are synergies, particularly with our ongoing digital content focus,” said Pacific Magazines Director of Magazines, Peter Zavecz.

“More Australian tweens buy Total Girl each month than any other tween girls’ magazine, while Girlfriend’s readership of 236,000 proves is it a must-read for Aussie teen girls. We will be building on each title’s strengths.”

He said the company will be holding individual discussions with staff today with the priority to share the proposed structure and, where possible, redeploy two staff whose positions may be identified as being redundant.

Zavecz also announced today that health and lifestyle title Prevention will be increasing the breadth of its content delivery and the focus on its burgeoning digital footprint, with the magazine becoming bi-monthly from the October issue.

“The 40+ audience is an exciting and growing space for us and we are responding to the way we know Prevention’s audience consumes its media. Bringing greater variety into the mix allows us to engage with them in a more flexible and integrated way and enables us to be more agile.

“Our digital touch points are expanding rapidly across apps, social media and the Yahoo!7 platform. Also, a growing stable of books, e-books and events means Prevention is in the perfect position to deliver rich content in a way that fits seamlessly into our readers’ lives.

“Editor Jacqui Mooney and her team have a growing and loyal audience, and the change in frequency will allow them to continue to deliver the most relevant and engaging content and to explore a whole new range of opportunities.”

There will be one staff redundancy as a result of the change in frequency.

“As part of this process, staff will be trained across any skill sets required for the new roles and for the positions moving forward,” Zavecz said.
