Northcliffe announced another new central subbing hub today and a number of free newspaper closures in Essex and Kent.
HoldtheFront Page reports Northcliffe is creating a centralised design and production hub in Chelmsford for all titles in its South East Weeklies division, stretching from Essex to the South Coast.
Some titles are set to be amalgamated and a number of free newspapers will be closed including Total Essex and Focus in West Kent. Free titles in Maidstone and Ashford are also under review.
The proposed centralised subbing hub in Chelmsford will be the fourth to be created by Northcliffe alongside those being proposed at Stoke, Nottingham and Hull. Redundancies are expected but no figure has been given.
