Independent Digital Media’s Web Publishing division has announced three key new appointments as it ramps up for its upcoming digital launch in the beauty space.

Zoë Foster has been appointed editor-in-chief of the new beauty site to be launched later this year. Former beauty director of Cosmopolitan and Harper’s Bazaar, Zoë brings a wealth of industry experience and beauty know-how to the role.

Marguerite Kramer, general manager, web publishing said: “Zoë’s a “new breed” journalist—combination storyteller, blogaholic, idea maven and quick wit who’s always camera-ready. She’s the perfect choice to have at the helm of our new media beauty venture.”

Zoë Foster said: “I’m equally passionate about beauty, writing and online. So to be given the luxury of fusing all three, and creating something entirely unique in the beauty landscape is a brilliant and fortunate opportunity, and one which I’m incredibly excited about.”

Joining Zoë in the editorial team is Yasemin Turker who has been appointed to the role of beauty editor. Yasemin was previously beauty editor of Famous magazine.

Nick Waterman, former videographer at ACP Digital, will also be joining the IDM Web Publishing team as video production manager.

“In assembling this dream team, we focused on the 3 C’s: credible, curious and confident. To be successful in this space, it’s all about connecting and delivering, and this trio is fresh and poised to transform the beauty category,” Ms Kramer said.
