Alemoru, who starts the role on 3 March, will oversee all editorial and social content for GLAMOUR UK, and reports into GLAMOUR Global Editorial Director, Samantha Barry.

Alemoru previously held roles at gal-dem and Dazed, and has written for a range of titles including the BBC, Time, British Vogue, The Guardian, and ES Magazine, as well as working with brands such as Disney, Gucci, Adidas, and Chanel. She has also acted as an advisor to Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, helping to establish the annual festival Black on the Square.

Alemoru commented: “In my career, I have seen firsthand the transformative power of online media: how it helps people decode the world around them, how good quality and truthful journalism gives readers the words to express how they feel that they couldn’t yet articulate, and even helps create community online and IRL. I can’t wait to continue this while spotlighting incredible homegrown talent, trends, and points of view with GLAMOUR’s platform. I’m honoured by this opportunity to explore all facets of British womanhood: the challenges we face but also the passions and optimism that can bring us together.”

Samantha Barry added: “I’m incredibly excited to work with Kemi on her new role. She is full of energy and fresh ideas on how she will take GLAMOUR to the next level, and joins an exciting and extremely talented UK team. I’ve no doubt that Kemi will elevate our editorial, campaigns, and GLAMOUR UK tentpole events, like Women of the Year.”
