The changes reflect the pressures all parts of the media sector are currently experiencing due to the ongoing economic downturn, says the company.
As a consequence it is estimated that there will be a reduction of approximately 17 job roles in the editorial department with as many of these redundancies as possible to be identified by voluntary means. Staff were today informed of the decision and those affected have now entered a period of consultation.
Sara Wilde (pictured), Managing Director for Trinity Mirror Regional North West and Wales, said: "It is vital that we continue to make and take these difficult decisions and I believe these changes will ensure we have a viable, robust and thriving business which continues to provide jobs and media services to the communities we serve."
