Media Scotland announces digital appointments

Media Scotland have announced the appointment of Gordon Stevenson as Head of Digital and an expanded role for Dave Bohill as Digital Editor.

Gordon and Dave have been instrumental in driving record online numbers at Scotland's leading digital news brand, says Media Scotland.

Media Scotland publish the Daily Record and Sunday Mail along with 22 locals including the Paisley Daily Express and the Ayrshire Post.

Allan Rennie, Editor in Chief of Media Scotland, said: "We have seen big audience increases - especially on mobile - driven by news exclusives, our bedroom tax campaign, increased video and picture galleries and football blogs.

"This is opening up new opportunities so we have restructured to put digital commercial at the heart of the editorial floor.

"Gordon and Dave make a great team and over the next few weeks will be unveiling products to further accelerate our growth and reinforce our position as Scotland's leading digital news publisher.

"Gordon's focus will be driving commercial through innovation and strategic partnership. Dave will complement this by increasing user engagement through brilliant content."

Gordon and Dave will report to Allan Rennie and Denise West, Managing Director of Media Scotland.
