Following the announcement that long serving business editor Michael Wilson will retire at the end of this month, Sky News have announced the appointment of the Sunday Telegraph's Mark Kleinman to the newly created role of City Editor.

Head of Sky News, John Ryley said; "Business news has been the biggest continuous story over the last 18 months or more. The public's ever increasing appetite for business news means we need to improve our ability to deliver original journalism, world-class analysis and the biggest interviews. Mark will help us achieve these goals."

Sky News' press statement added; "In addition to his Sky News role, in which he will focus on delivering agenda-setting off-diary stories, Mark will also be writing a weekly business column for The Times and will be writing a blog on major stories in the City and the world of business."
