He previously spent nearly eight years at Business Insider and was second-in-command in the UK, leading its bureau of around 50 journalists and managing around 20 of them directly. He oversaw news, health, and entertainment coverage.

Corcoran previously wrote British and global news for Heat Street, a politics and opinion site launched in April 2016 by Dow Jones and News Corp. It has since closed.

He is a graduate of the University of Cambridge.
