Medium Rare Content Agency announces changes to Qantas team

Jessica Irvine has been appointed as the new executive editor of Qantas magazine and its website, Travel Insider.

Irvine joined Medium Rare in April 2016 as associate editor of Qantas magazine before being appointed editor of QantasLink’s Spirit magazine in July 2018, where she has overseen a highly successful redesign of the beloved regional print title.

Replacing Irvine in the role of Spirit editor is Helen Martin, who has served as the title’s chief sub-editor for the past year.

Kirsten Galliott, Head of Content, Travel & Luxury at Medium Rare, welcomed both appointments. “We are fortunate to have a wealth of talent within the company and I am delighted to make these internal promotions. Jessica is an incredible asset to the Qantas team and will bring her enthusiasm and experience to the print and digital titles, as well as many of our events. Helen has a vast knowledge of regional Australia and will make a fantastic editor of Spirit.”

Di Webster, the former managing editor of Qantas magazine, is also re-joining the Qantas team as editor-at-large. 

“This is undoubtedly the dream team,” said Galliott.
