Tim Ingham is to leave his three year old post as Editor of Music Week at the close of 2014, it’s been confirmed, in order to establish his own media enterprise in the new year.

MW’s now-dep ed Tom Pakinkis will take over as editor from Ingham, who will stay on as an occasional consultant on various Music Week events.

Appraising the changes in editorship, Music Week Publisher Dave Roberts says: “It’s obviously very sad that Tim’s leaving us. He’s played an important role in the renaissance of Music Week. But, Tom’s been beside him every step of the way and is the perfect candidate to take over and keep pushing us on. Plus we’ll be working with Tim on our bigger events anyway, so he’s not gone completely”.

Meanwhile joining the Music Week fam as of 1 Jan 2015 are veteran journalists Mark Sutherland – who comes in as Contributing Editor – and one-time global editor at Billboard Emmanuel Legrande, who’ll act as Music Week’s US editor from his base in Washington.

As to that, Roberts adds: “The addition of Mark and Emmanuel to the team is also a real coup and ensures that we’ll continue to deliver original and informative content for all sectors of the business”.
