In his new position, Young will oversee Hearst Magazines’ global business which includes over 300 print titles and 240 digital brands. Carey is moving into a chairman position for the division until the end of 2019, and is taking on the role of fellow at Harvard University’s Advanced Leadership Initiative starting in January. Both moves are effective immediately. Since 2013, Young served as president of Hearst Magazines Digital Media where he was tasked with leading the brand’s digital operation. In addition, he developed  a proprietary platform, MediaOS, which is currently used across Hearst’s portfolio to grow audience and revenue for magazine brand sites.

Currently, Young also serves on the boards for the Interactive Advertising Bureau, Digital Content... Continue reading at 'Folio Magazine'
