The Nub News Head of Communities responsibilities will include:

  • Recruitment of talented and committed journalists, both experienced and self-starters, to join our existing team of 33 reporters.
  • Day-to-day management of the editorial team with overall responsibility for content and style, recognising the importance of video and live coverage, and establishing all sites as being at the nub of their community together with the ability to create and deliver ground-making reader involvement.
  • Working with our Commercial Team to provide editorial initiatives to secure sponsorship deals with UK-wide and regional clients.
  • Assisting our technical team to develop the sites in a manner which encourages our readers to look upon Nub News as the go-to media for local news, information and business support.
