One Management

The Australian public may know Neale Whitaker as the stylish English judge on smash hit renovation series ‘The Block’ & Foxtel’s ‘Love it or List it’, but his knowledge and expertise come courtesy of his successful publishing career after more than a decade at the helm of Aussie style bibles Belle and Vogue Living.

London-born Neale started his career in the office of Lynne Franks. After working as a fashion publicist and stylist, Neale took on publishing roles for high-profile retailers including Marks & Spencer, Debenhams and IKEA. He also launched Food Illustrated for upmarket British supermarket Waitrose, a magazine that was praised internationally and set new standards for food publishing in the UK.

In 1999, Neale moved to Sydney and edited, Marie Claire Lifestyle. His impeccable taste and professionalism won him many fans and he was kept busy with regular columns in The Sydney Morning Herald’s Good Living supplement, and articles for American Gourmet magazine. During his five years at FPC Magazines (now NewsLifeMedia) he edited Vogue Entertaining + Travel and launched best-selling food magazine Delicious —the most successful magazine launch in the history of Australian publishing.

After successfully editing Belle for eight years, Neale joined Vogue Living as Editor-in-chief in 2014. In mid-2017 he transitioned into the role of Editor-at-large to allow time for his increasing television and wider media commitments. Neale continues as a columnist for Stellar, the weekly colour magazine for Sunday Telegraph(NSW), Sunday Herald Sun(VIC) and Sunday Mail(QLD).
