Trader Media Group (TMG) has appointed Zillah Byng-Maddick (pictured) as interim Chief Executive with immediate effect following John King’s decision to step down.

Sean Glithero, who has been with the Group six years, has been appointed interim Group Finance Director.

Tom Hall, Chairman of the TMG Board, said: “We are tremendously grateful for everything John has achieved at TMG. During his time as Chief Executive, the Group has been widely recognised as providing one of the world’s most successful examples of transition from print to digital publishing. He leaves the company in excellent shape as it moves on to the next stage of its development. We wish him every success in the future.”

John King said: “I have enjoyed five exciting and successful years working with an outstanding team at TMG. We have been on an amazing, transformational journey and while I am sorry to be leaving, the business needs a leader to commit long term to the next stage of the company’s development. I leave in the knowledge that the company is in a strong position to build on what we have achieved and that this is the right time for me to move on.”
