Eurogamer Editorial
Tom Bramwell
Operations director / Editor-at-Large
Tom joined Eurogamer in 2000 and became Editor in January 2008. Tom is responsible for editorial, so you really can blame him for everything, even if he didn't actually do it. Cool, no?

Ellie Gibson
Deputy Editor, Eurogamer.net
Ellie previously edited our sister site, GamesIndustry.biz, but found the dress code restrictive and became our Deputy Editor in January 2008. She has a suitcase full of wigs.
- Username: Ellie
Oli Welsh
Reviews Editor, Eurogamer.net
Oli joined Eurogamer in 2008 as MMO Editor. In 2010 he became reviews editor, taking responsibility for all the site's reviews, although he continues to look after the MMO section and punch rats in the name of science. He is known as The European because he went to Calais once.

Wesley Yin-Poole
News Editor, Eurogamer.net
Wes lives for news. He eats news, sleeps news and writes news. On his days off he chases news. He's having a third arm surgically attached so he can be permanently on the phone and he supports Chelsea FC, which didn't come up in his interview...
Rob Purchese
Senior Staff Writer, Eurogamer.net
Rob recently ascended to Senior Staff Writer having originally joined the company to do admin work. His meteoric rise has been noted and he will die under suspicious circumstances in due course.

Fred Dutton
US News Editor, Eurogamer.net
Yeehaw! Washington-based Fred joined Eurogamer in 2010 to help us keep our growing US audience updated throughout their daytime hours, and so we would have someone to talk to on Skype.
Richard Leadbetter
Technology editor, Eurogamer.net
Rich is known as The Blacksmith of the Future round these parts. He's spent 20 years writing about games, mainly for magazines the youngsters of today haven't even heard of. Today he runs high definition video specialist firm Digital Foundry Ltd., in between writing for Eurogamer about things too technical for the rest of us to understand and using words like "hypervisor" in a serious context.

Tom Phillips
Staff Writer, Eurogamer.net
Tom grew up somewhere in the top right of England, but when we offered him the chance to make pictures and videos and put them on the internet and stuff he immediately fled south to join us. In 2012 he was promoted to Staff Writer and now writes lots of news and features. Suspicious beard.

John Bedford
Content Editor, Eurogamer Network Ltd.
John joined Eurogamer in April 2011 to work on our syndicated content packages and to write about MMOs, which seemed like a sensible step for a recovering WOW addict. Oh, working from home today, are we? Working from Azeroth, more like.

Johnny Minkley
Contributor
Johnny Minkley is a veteran games writer and broadcaster, former editor of Eurogamer TV, VP of gaming charity SpecialEffect, and hopeless social media addict.

James Hills
Video Editor
James is in charge of making the pictures go with sounds and things like that on Eurogamer TV. He also holds the camera, moans about things and dislikes cheese with pathological intensity.

Development
Mark Kennedy
Technical Director
Mark's been here through several iterations of the website and wrote most of the code that makes it buzz and whirr. He also fights off Internet terrorists when they try and take us down like in Die Hard 4.
- Username: sharpkiddie
Craig Munro
Senior Developer
Craig does the same sort of thing as Mark, but is more handsome. He also emails us occasionally trying to convince us to give blood, which is very noble, although his method of collecting it is a bit suspicious.
- Username: craigy
Chris Ward
Senior Developer
Chris is responsible for things like the amazing Eurogamer TV technology, and boasts an encyclopaedic knowledge of film and TV. Now that we've moved offices he doesn't have to drive us home at the end of the day.

Martin Taylor
Designer
Martin is currently in his second spell at Eurogamer, designing our websites and performing other graphical duties when the need arises. Also, his desk is piled high with quirky Japanese things, which is useful for distracting visitors when we can't be bothered to talk to them.
- Username: mouse
Simon Downes
Developer
Simon eats. A lot. No, seriously, really a lot. He also claims to work on top secret projects which he can't talk to the rest of us about because we don't have the right level of security clearance. But we all know he spends most of his time typing "cheeseburger" into Google image search.
- Username: jungle_ninja
Dan Bouckley
"Interactive" Web Developer
Dan joined Eurogamer in 2011 to help build our adverts and, wherever possible, make sure they don't punch your computer in the face and throw it out the window whenever they load. He's also a total Nintendo fanboy, which we respect. (Inverted commas, developer's own.)
Geoff Wright
Systems Manager
If Mark fights off Internet terrorists, Geoff is the one who puts in the final boot. He ensures our sites don't fall off the Internet. He only uses computers via terminal, and refuses to acknowledge GUIs exist.
Josh Heaton
Designer
Josh creates many of the beautiful advertising takeovers you see on the site wrapped around the rubbish content no one cares about. He's also rubbish at FIFA.
Eurogamer Expo
Tom Champion
Community Manager
Tom, or 'Tom C' as he's affectionately but unimaginatively known, joined Eurogamer in May 2009 to help with the Expo. He was so good at peeling Blu-Tack off the walls that we let him stay. He's now the host of the Eurogamer.net podcast and responsible for everything no one else wants to do.
- Username: Venatio
David Lilley
Events director
Like Rich, David has been in the games industry for two decades now. Come to think of it we've never seen them in the same room. Anyway, David is responsible for the events, research and content licensing side of the Eurogamer business, and making sure we peel all the Blu-Tack off the walls properly at the end of the Expo.

Eurogamer Sales
Dan Robinson
Sales director, Eurogamer.net
Dan joined Eurogamer in 2006 and is responsible for the network's advertising, without which none of us would be here. Not that you can see us under that f***ing overlay.
- Username: Spydez
Matt Styles
Consumer sales, Eurogamer.net
Clean-living Matt also sells advertising space across the EG network, and I really can't think of anything else to type, even though he's lovely. He's wearing a shirt that says "Monday". Topical.
- Username: MrMcStyles
Martin Lyford
Lifestyle sales, Eurogamer.net
Martin phones people up and asks them to advertise on Eurogamer.net. When he's not doing that he entertains us on staff days out by cycling while smoking and crashing into colleagues.
Dean Smith
Consumer sales, Eurogamer.net
Dean joined Eurogamer in 2010 and was immediately renamed "One Man Stag Party" by editor Bramwell thanks to his raucous support during lunchtime FIFA matches and his geeeeezaaaaar accent. Currently has his hood up indoors. OMSP.
Ben Whitmore
Ad Trafficker, Eurogamer.net
Ben joined Eurogamer in 2011 and is responsible for making sure all the lovely advertisements that pay for your kids' education go up on the site without exploding the internet.
Management
Rupert Loman
Managing Director
Rupert is the boss and co-founder of Eurogamer Network, and is responsible for the day-to-day running of the company and making long-term plans for our expansion, such as putting hose-pipes in our mouths and turning the tap on really quickly.
