SPH appoints Wang GM of lifestyle division

SINGAPORE - Straits Times' publisher Singapore Press Holdings has appointed Sharon Wang to a newly-created role of general manager of Lifestyle 3, a division of consumer magazines which includes Maxim and Torque.

The move follows a reorganisation of the publishing group that began last year, and saw titles from publisher Blu Inc absorbed into the group.

Wang, who was previously general manager of Events Creation, will oversee Maxim, Torque, First and Men's Health.

Separately, Penelope Chan will join SPH Magazines as editor of Simply Her, which targets working women.
