Associated Magazines appoints associate publisher

Associated Magazines announced yesterday, Monday, 19 January 2009, that it has appointed Andreline van Tonder as associate publisher for all titles in the group. Van Tonder will rejoin the company in February 2009, after spending over two years at Media24.

“The appointment of Andreline is part of our strategy to strengthen the publishing side of our business,” said Julia Raphaely, MD of Associated Magazines. “We are putting people and systems in place to strengthen the company and ensure long-term sustainability through the difficult current economic climate.”

Apart from her roughly two-year stint as brand manager for Creative Living Magazines at Media24, Van Tonder previously worked at Associated Magazines as circulation and marketing manager. In her new position, she will work closely with Associated Magazines' soon-to-be-appointed group publisher.
