Peter Moore’s Summary

At the beginning of 2008 I transferred to digital media after working for some years as a print journalist and editor. I now work as the editorial project manager at Net Media Planet, responsible for managing content across a range of leading websites for clients such as Dell, McAfee and Symantec.

Working as part of one of a new generation of Google companies has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of how digital media works. I’ve established websites and blogs, hired journalists and translators, and implemented social media and SEO strategies across a number of sites.

Along the way I’ve worked with some extremely talented teams. At Net Media Planet we’ve won the Internet Commerce Excellence Award and been nominated for the Best Publisher Award at the A4U Expo. The company is thriving and I’m now a part of a team that works across 27 countries, in different 17 languages and generates annual client revenues of over £80 million. In June 2009, New Media Age ranked Net Media Planet at the fourth largest search company in the country and in September 2009 the Times cited the company as the 16th fastest-growing private technology firm in the UK.

I've now four years experience of creating and managing digital publications in both Spain and the UK. I've also worked as the editor of an international magazine and managed the editorial department of another.
