Team,
Some exciting news to share — Jamie Heller is joining Business Insider as our new Editor-in-Chief!
Jamie has worked at The Wall Street Journal for more than 20 years and currently leads their global business and tech coverage. She led the corporate team during the pandemic, chronicling the arrival of inflation, labor shortages, and later mounting pressures on the white-collar workforce. She has been a leader of the Journal’s technology coverage including on AI and the dominance of the tech giants. Jamie is a well-respected leader known for her hustle and outstanding news judgment.
Jamie is also a long-time fan (and subscriber!) of Business Insider and loves everything that makes us unique. With our strategy in place, we have experienced remarkable transformation and growth already. Jamie’s mission is to keep us on course to make our forward-looking strategy a reality.
It has been wonderful getting to know Jamie over the past few months. She is sharp and passionate and believes deeply that journalism is a team sport. I am confident in Jamie’s ability to lead our team into the next era.
Finally, I want to thank Julie Zeveloff West for her leadership as our interim EIC over the past months, as well as our editorial leadership team’s continued dedication and focus through this time.
Please join me in welcoming Jamie to the team — I can’t wait for you all to meet her!
