Former Time Inc. Senior Vice President Regina Buckley will become the next chief financial and operating officer at The Guardian US. Buckley was previously general manager and SVP of digital operations and business development at Time Inc.

She will replace Chris Carr, EVP of finance at The Guardian US, who is leaving after nearly three years at the company.

Buckley will report directly to The Guardian's US and Australia chief executive Evelyn Webster, and will work “to grow and expand the US business,” according to the company.

“With a diverse revenue mix that includes advertisers, readers and philanthropic partnerships, I look forward to working with Evelyn and the team to build The Guardian’s presence even further in the US market,” Buckley stated.

Buckley has spent over 20 years at Time Inc., and has also previously served as the SVP of finance and general manager for the Style & Entertainment Group.

“Regina blends a unique skill set across finance, strategy and business development and she will play an important role as we continue to grow The Guardian's US business,” Webster stated.

Guardian USracked up more than 300,000 paying supporters in the year since it began asking American readers to voluntarily contribute funds to support its journalism.

The contributions now account for more than a third of the newspaper's revenue.

The group of U.S. supporters include a mix of members, recurring contributors, one-time contributors and digital subscribers, according to the company.

In December, John Mulholland, editor of the British Sunday newspaper The Observer,became editor of Guardian US.

The Observer,The Guardian and Guardian US are all owned by Guardian News & Media.
