The National Magazine Company is looking for a digital publishing managing director as it pushes its big titles online.

Cosmopolitan, Good Housekeeping and Country Living are to expand online this summer and the new role has been created to build the business.

Natmags recently launched youandyourwedding.co.uk and babyexpert.co.uk and acquired NetDoctor.co.uk.

The appointment is expected to be made later in the summer and further magazine site launches are planned for this autumn.

Duncan Edwards, chief executive of NatMags, said: "We talked earlier in the year of our intention to build a scale network of online products and we are making good progress with this strategy."

He added: "During the summer we have launches scheduled for Cosmopolitan, Good Housekeeping and Country Living and we are currently planning our autumn launches.

"We now need a senior manager to drive this new business forward, to realise our commercial objectives and to set the digital agenda for the group."
