Rob Wijnberg stopt als hoofdredacteur van De Correspondent 24.02.2026

De Correspondent, an online journalistic platform, is seeking a new editorial leadership as its founder and editor-in-chief, Rob Wijnberg, transitions to a different role within the organization. Associate editors Rosan Smits and Maaike Goslinga will also be taking on new positions. This change comes as De Correspondent approaches its 12.5-year anniversary in March, which the departing editorial team views as an opportune moment for a new chapter. Wijnberg will return to a more prominent writing role, contributing essays, columns, podcasts, and videos, while also focusing on long-term innovation for the platform. The decision is described as positive, stemming from a desire to re-engage with writing and address evolving global developments.
