Jane McCallion
Jane is deputy editor at ITPro, and its sibling titles Cloud Pro and ChannelPro. She’s started out with the brands as a staff writer specializing in cloud computing. She went on to become senior writer and reports editor, managing the content and creation of ITPro’s quarterly whitepapers. During this time, she broadened her expertise to include cyber security, data centers and enterprise IT infrastructure. In 2016, she became features editor, managing a pool of freelance and internal writers, while continuing to specialise in enterprise IT infrastructure, data centers, and business strategy.
In October 2021, she became the sites’ deputy editor and now has a more strategic role, although she is still a specialist in enterprise IT infrastructure and business strategy.
Jane holds an MA in journalism from Goldsmiths, University of London, and a BA in Applied Languages from the University of Portsmouth. She is fluent in French and Spanish, and has written features in both languages.
Prior to joining ITPro, Jane was a freelance business journalist writing as both Jane McCallion and Jane Bordenave for titles such as European CEO, World Finance, and Business Excellence Magazine.
