Ex-deputy editor of
Vogue and David Cameron’s sister-in-law takes over at difficult time for title
After losing her
Job as deputy editor at Vogue, Emily Sheffield said she had some salient career advice from the former chancellor George Osborne: step back and seriously consider what you want next.
A few years on, and Sheffield is taking over from Osborne as editor of the Evening Standard, tasked with making the
London daily newspaper digital-first during a pandemic that Osborne described as the “greatest crisis” in the Standard’s 200-year history.
