Future UK’s COO to step down

Future, the special-interest media group, has announced that Simon Wear has decided to step down from his role as Chief Operating Officer for its UK business, with immediate effect.

Simon (pictured) has spent 18 years with Future and is expected to spend some time with his family, before pursuing other career opportunities.

Stevie Spring, Chief Executive for Future plc said: “Simon has been a great asset to Future and we’re very sorry to see him go.  I completely understand that after many years with the company, he’s decided that he wishes to take on new challenges.  We wish him the very best for the future.”

Simon Wear, Chief Operating Officer for Future UK said: “After much soul searching I have decided to leave this amazing company. Having spent pretty much my whole adult life at Future I just feel the need to take a break and do something new. I intend to spend some time riding my bike and being with my family before I explore some new and different opportunities. I have loved every minute of my time at Future. The talent is seemingly endless and the people are fabulous. I am truly proud to have played a part in such a wonderful company.”
