Paul Taylor ready to take up reins at Wild & Wolf

“I’m delighted to be guiding Wild & Wolf in its next phase of development”.

It’s all change at Parragon Books, with Paul Taylor moving across to Wild & Wolf to become its ceo.

Paul (pictured) has been instrumental in building Parragon Books since 2006.

Mike Symons makes the move from Penguin Random House to take on the ceo role at Parragon. Mike boasts over 25 years’ experience, having begun his career with Reed Children’s Books. He was also part of the management team that worked on the merger of Penguin and Random House.

Meanwhile, Paul is looking forward to leading Wild & Wolf, which specialises in giftware, homeware, accessories and toys, with a number of licences in its portfolio.

“I have admired the innovation and beautiful design of Wild & Wolf products for many years and, having been involved in its acquisition two years ago, I am now pleased to have the opportunity to lead and grow the business internationally,” Paul commented.

“I’m delighted to be guiding Wild & Wolf in its next phase of development.”
