Bloomberg Pursuits hires deputy editor

Bloomberg Pursuits has tapped James Gaddy as its deputy editor, reports Alexandra Steigrad of Women’s Wear Daily.

Steigrad writes, “The deputy editor role had been open since the magazine went under a restructuring of sorts that included a new editorial team and a redesign. Stan Parish held the role when Ted Moncrieff served as the magazine’s editor in chief.

“Gaddy’s appointment is a new position under the magazine’s current editor in chief Emma Rosenblum, who took the helm in January.

“Gaddy, who most recently served as deputy editor at The Wall Street Journal’s Off Duty section, will report to Rosenblum. Prior to The Journal, Gaddy served as a senior editor at Condé Nast’s Details magazine. He has also worked for Surface, Interview and Print magazines.”
