Arif Durrani leaves Campaign for Bloomberg

Bloomberg Media has appointed Arif Durrani as commercial editor for Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Having spent the past seven years leading editorial roles at Haymarket – currently as head of media for Campaign and editor of MediaWeek – Durrani will oversee editorial commissioning of bespoke branded content campaigns across Bloomberg Media platforms – including the newly-launched European edition of Bloomberg Business.

Durrani will join the EMEA commercial division led by Matt Teeman from September, and will report into Penny Bartram, head of solutions EMEA, who joined the company in April.

Commenting on the appointment, Teeman said: “Arif is a key hire for us, as he brings with him a wealth of invaluable knowledge and experience.
