Trojan Publishing has appointed Joanna Knight as the new editor of Women’s Fitness magazine.
Knight, formerly deputy editor, takes the helm today following the departure on Friday of founding editor Christina Neal, who left after three years at the helm.
Neal founded niche publication Personal Trainer for Women, in 2002, before selling the magazine to Trojan Publishing in 2006 where it was relaunched as Women’s Fitness.
She told the Press Gazette she left the magazine to work on a new, as yet undisclosed, venture.
