The working life of Jo Levitas, Art Director of Healthy & Healthy For Men
I joined River after working on various magazine titles covering interiors to travel and food to parenting. Now, after five years here, with my slippers now firmly under the bed as it were, I feel more than part of the furniture.

Christmas in July: Magazine editing for the seasons
I have just packed up the Christmas decorations, taken the Christmas cards down from the mantelpiece and the Christmas tree is lying in the garden. It’s the 12th of July and Christmas is over in my house! Together with my team from River I’ve just finished a two-day photo shoot for The Co-operative Food magazine’s Christmas issue
A day in the life of Sophie Adams, Advertising Manager
Having come from consumer titles across various different markets, it’s great to be doing something slightly different but still in the same industry. By that, I mean still being involved with the advertising in magazines yet working for a content marketing agency and not just a publishing house. My days are varied and can differ greatly but what I love is being involved with our clients business and also working with my advertising clients and creating some great ideas and relationships that result in some great pieces of activity.
A day in the life of Martin Black, Senior Production Manager
As Senior Production Manager, I oversee the production of River’s magazines and printed materials from design to delivery. The day always starts with a cup of tea. Generously made by whoever gets in to the office first and left on your desk. Very civilized indeed.
A day in the life of Lucy Morris
Before working at River, I spent 10 years climbing the ladder, on some of the UK’s biggest glossy fashion and lifestyle magazines, and I am now at a point in my career when all that knowledge, training and the contacts made along the way are really coming together!
