Andrew White rejoins The Australian after five-year stint at AFR

Australian Financial Review business writer Andrew White is returning to rival newspaper The Australian, the title he was poached from by the AFR almost five years ago.

He returns to The Australian to boost its coverage of national and international business as associate editor, the paper is reporting.

White joined the AFR from The Oz, where he was business editor, in July 2007 to edit its Rear Window gossip column. He was also companies editor during his time at the Fairfax newspaper.

White previously spent an 11-year stint at The Oz, between 1996 and 2007, before joining the AFR.

In 2008, White won a Walkley Award for business journalism for the investigative report, ‘Inside job: Who killed Opes Prime?’.
