Boston Business Journal names Seiffert its ME

Boston Business Journal executive editor Doug Banks sent out the following announcement on Thursday:

Hi everyone,
Carolyn and I are happy to share with you that Don Seiffert has been named Managing Editor of the BBJ, taking over for Craig Douglas. Don has been an important part of the BBJ on many levels, and has become the go-to person for reporting on the business of biotech and life sciences in the region.
Not only has he been a leader in our newsroom, but prior to his time at the BBJ, Don served in several top editor positions, including suburban editor of the Brockton Enterprise and the editor of the Newton TAB, making this a great move both for him and for us at the BBJ.
I know you will join us in congratulating him!
Doug

Douglas moved to American City Business Journals’ headquarters in Charlotte to run its data reporting initiative.
