James Montgomery, who had been the Financial Times U.S. news editor, is going to London to become the paper’s online editor, according to an article in Brand Republic this morning.
“Montgomery will return to London from his current post as the FT’s US news editor later this month. Targett, who was only made FT.com editor in June last year, will become editor of the FT’s special supplements and reports.
“The FT says Montgomery will help strengthen the website’s position as the world’s most popular business news website. It currently has more than 85,000 subscribers,
“Montgomery will report to Barber and work alongside Paul Murphy, who was recently made FT.com’s development editor.”
