Deputy Web Reviews Editor
Tom's career started with an idle application for work experience at Auto Express magazine while stacking shelves at his local cornershop. Since then, he's worked on the websites of Auto Express and evo Magazine, before joining the reviews team for the PA news agency, driving all of the latest models and writing about them in national publications. From there, Tom moved on to Bauer Media to work on Parkers.co.uk and CAR Magazine as Senior Staff Writer, focusing mainly on reviews but also writing ownership content, news articles and opinion pieces. He's also spent a stint reviewing motoring products and books, and is a former judge of the RAC Motoring Book of the Year awards. He's now Deputy Website Reviews Editor at Carwow, helping buyers make the best decision when the time comes to change their car. Outside of the office, Tom sings with the award-winning Peterborough Male Voice Choir, collects Christmas jumpers and vintage appliances, and has a penchant for old Peugeots.
