Lagolago-Craig will guide the business, which is based in Melbourne, in tackling technological challenges in digital publishing, onboarding digital and engineering talent from around the globe, and enabling the business' industry-leading clients to tell their story in new ways.
Lagolago-Craig has worked at News Corp Australia for the past 20 years and served as the director of publishing technology and services since June 2020.
"For some time now, we've been looking at taking XWP to the next level and, after a period of unprecedented growth, we're delighted to have Myles on board as CEO,” says founder of XWP Dave Rosen.
