Holdings Media Group, owners of titles such as the Spectator and the Business

media, particularly in Architecture, Civil Engineering and Construction, made
him a shoo-in for the Construction leadership role “, said Matt Denton,

experience to drive the division and Big 5 brand forward. A strong and proven
business leader he is a fantastic addition to the team.

launch, Ben’s experience and entrepreneurial nature will be perfectly suited at
the helm”, said Denton.
