“James was an absolute dream to work with because he has that special mixture of being super professional and razor sharp but also very approachable. He always encouraged and supported me to develop ideas, and his door was always open. I would jump at the chance to work with him again!”
- Helen Graves, food editor and writer
“James is a dynamic editor, a natural manager and one of those rare people who is both extremely detail-oriented and able to think in big picture terms at once. He taught me a great deal about the expert craft of journalism – in a climate where anyone can brand themselves a writer, he stands out as a true pro.”
- Rachel Stoplar, Communications Manager, House of Illustration
I hired James as Londonist’s Editor in Chief and had the pleasure of working with him closely for two and half years. He is a terrific editor, manager and colleague – passionate about journalism and editorial integrity and a collaborative and supportive team player. He fosters a fun and creative, hard working and high achieving environment, leading with positivity. James also brings tremendous commercial acumen and business nous to the table, something I found invaluable.
