Nottingham Post appoint new Editor

Mike Sassi, currently Editor of The Sentinel in Stoke-on-Trent, has been appointed Editor of the Nottingham Post.

Mike (pictured) began his career at the Derby Telegraph in 1988 as a Junior Reporter, later moving to the Exeter Express & Echo and The South Wales Echo.

In 1999 he was appointed Editor of the Lincolnshire Echo, leaving in December 2005 to become Editor at The Sentinel.

Mike said: “I’ve hugely enjoyed the absolute privilege of editing The Sentinel for more than seven years. Having such tremendous and talented staff has made it a pleasure to come to work every day. I am relishing the challenge of editing the Nottingham Post. I’m confident I can help it achieve great success.”

Steve Hollingsworth, Nottingham Publisher said “I am looking forward to an exciting and positive relationship with Mike, as the Nottingham Post capitalises upon its greater paginations, increased story counts and a new approach to print and online news gathering in Nottinghamshire’s communities.”

Mike takes up his new role on 10th June 2013 and the process to appoint a new Editor for The Sentinel will begin immediately.
