A spokesperson for Snap Inc. confirmed the hire to Wagner and said Ogier will report to David Brinker, former president of the New York Post, who joined the company in October to lead business development for content efforts.

Prior to her stint with Apple News, Ogier served as iTunes App Store manager for news, newsstand, food and drink and lifestyle at Apple, and as magazine and iPad manager for Australia’s Coles magazine.
