The NCTJ’s photojournalism board has invited Steve Phillips, picture editor at the South Wales Evening Post, to become its sixth member.
The board meets every year in May and November to moderate and examine the work of trainee press photographers and photojournalists taking the NCTJ courses at Norton College in Sheffield.
Phillips said: “The standard of work is very high. I’m delighted to have the opportunity to give something back to the industry.”
