I’m Stuart and I am the UK Managing Director of media technology company AOL, where I lead the overall operations and strategic direction of the business. AOL builds premium content and innovative technology, an essential combination we call Culture and Code. In the UK this includes AOL’s award-winning editorial brands The Huffington Post, MAKERS, TechCrunch and Engadget, as well as the advertiser sales and publisher platforms businesses which enables advertisers and media brands to reach consumers through premium video experiences, programmatic buying and performance-driven campaigns. Having previously worked at Yahoo UK, Virgin Media, Hearst Digital and as Sales Director at Microsoft Advertising UK, I moved to AOL UK as part of the partnership between the two companies to become Commercial Director before being appointed MD. A coastal Essex lad at heart, I live with my wife and children in Leigh on Sea.
