To rapidly accelerate its growing digital audience and commercial offering, the Evening Standard has appointed David Tomchak as digital director, editorial, who joins from Number 10 Downing Street, where he has led digital marketing and communications for the Prime Minister and Cabinet Office, and served as Deputy Director to the Government Communications Service. Prior to that, David spent nearly a decade at the BBC with a brief sojourn running his own venture.

David’s appointment is part of an ongoing investment and product development plan to achieve the title’s full editorial and commercial potential across its two sites, standard.co.uk and homesandproperty.co.uk. Reporting to Zach Leonard, MD Digital, Tomchak will assume responsibility for all ES digital editorial and production staff. Working alongside the editor of the newspaper, David is expected to start in May.
