Newsquest has made two of its most senior management figures in the North West redundant, reports How Do.
Although Newsquest had declined to comment on the cuts, How Do reports that both managing director of Newsquest Bolton Eric Henshaw and the publisher for the Newsquest Merseyside operation Derek King have been made redundant.
Jan Lever, the head of Newsquest Blackburn, is thought to be taking over responsibility for Henshaw’s portfolio of papers – including the Bolton News and Bury Times – but it is not known who will be taking on King’s responsibilities.
