Bio
Hannah Prevett
I invited Jen to intern at News UK after being impressed by her flair and style of writing. We weren't disappointed: she has a keen sense of what makes a good story, is a personable interviewer and a veritable ideas machine to boot! I personally commissioned Jen to write some entrepreneur profiles for a series of supplements I was working on and, despite having no background in business journalism, her copy was always on time and on point. We were so impressed that she was given a staff job and was then promoted to join much more experienced colleagues as a commercial editor and creative lead. Excited to see what Jen's future holds.

Jennifer is a talented multimedia journalist, full of creativity with an engaging style, and cares deeply about her work and colleagues. The role she undertakes at The Times/Sunday Times has helped her develop a broad skill-set from a young age and given her a fundamental grasp of how journalism is changing and needs to progress over the next decade. Jennifer was also my co-founder on the Brexit Podcast, a fun project where we set out to examine exactly what leaving the European Union might mean for Britain and beyond, broadcasting over 100 interviews in little over a year and receiving hundreds of thousands of downloads.
