Peter Brooks-Johnson is among the candidates shortlisted by Future to replace Zillah Byng-Thorne, who plans to step down as CEO later this year, Sky News learns.
The outgoing chief executive of Rightmove is among a pack of contenders to become the next boss of Future, the Marie Claire and Wallpaper publisher.
Sky News has learnt that Peter Brooks-Johnson, who will leave the property portal in March, has been shortlisted to succeed Zillah Byng-Thorne, the media group's veteran chief. Mr Brooks-Johnson is one of"several" names being considered by Richard Huntingford, Future's chairman, according to a person close to the succession process.
The identity of the other candidates was unclear this weekend, and one source close to Mr Brooks-Johnson said it was unclear whether, if he was offered the job, he would take it. Future's £1.8bn stock market valuation, which has more than halved in the last year, is significantly smaller than that of Rightmove, which has a market capitalisation of £4.5bn.Last September, Future confirmed a Sky News report that Ms Byng-Thorne had notified colleagues that she intended to step down in 2023.
