Mark Little to lead Twitter Ireland

Former RTÉ journalist and Storyful founder Mark Little is to become the head of Twitter’s Irish operations just eight months after joining the social network.

Mr Little, who took up the role of vice president of media for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, will take over on July 1 after current managing director Stephen McIntyre departs.

The former Prime Time presenter will also continue to lead the Twitter media team in Europe.
