Riccardo Magliola

Rik joined TIAH having progressed to the role of Senior Content Editor at Farmers Guardian despite having no previous professional experience of farming. However, with a strong family background in food production, he quickly found a passion for agriculture and horticulture – particularly the fast-changing technological side of the industry.

Prior to this, Rik has worked across a range of mainstream celebrity magazines, tabloid newspapers, technology magazines and websites in writer, sub-editor and designer roles. 

Rik has a Master’s Degree in Magazine Journalism and found a love for media after joining the student newspaper while studying his undergraduate degree in Astrophysics at the University of Central Lancashire.

Outside of work, Rik is a proud father and a sociable geek, as happy rallying his pals around for board game nights as he is organising trips to ice cream parlours at farms across Lancashire.
