Hans Schneeberger steps down as editor-in-chief of Migros magazine
Hans Schneeberger will step down as editor-in-chief of the German-Swiss edition of Migros Magazine in the fall of 2017. The 57-year-old will remain with Migros Media and focus on new projects. He has been in charge of Migros Magazine since 2004. The search for his successor is already underway.
According to a statement, Hans Schneeberger wants to step down at his own request and devote himself to new projects: "I have been planning this step for years, because I was always of the opinion that I did not want to remain Editor-in-Chief until retirement. Now I've been given the chance to tackle new projects within Migros Media, and I'm taking it."
Lorenz Bruegger, Head of the Migros Media Directorate: "Hans Schneeberger is an outstanding journalist and has shaped Migros Magazine for 13 years with his keen sense of topics. I am very pleased that he will continue to contribute his knowledge to the company in the future and that we will be able to retain him."
It is not yet known who will succeed Hans Schneeberger. The search has already begun, according to the statement.
