    IT/Digital Operations Manager - London, United Kingdom - The Independent

    Default job background
    Description
    IT and Digital Operations Manager Reports to: Chief Technology Officer

    The Independent is an online news publisher that was established in 1986 as a national newspaper independent of party political affiliations or proprietorial influence.

    In 2016, The Independent became a fully digital publisher, moving away from print in pursuit of sustainability, and to safeguard its values and journalism for the future.

    The Independent has always thrived through innovation and change.

    It was the first British newspaper to add a Saturday magazine; the first to give photography the same prestige as a news copy; the first to launch a concise quality compact paper; and the first – and only – major newspaper to pull off a successful transformation to fully digital publishing.

    Through The Independent, Independent TV, eCommerce, indy100, subscriptions and other 'reader revenues', The Independent plans to continue the work of many decades, bringing much-needed independent journalism to over 100 million unique global visitors a month, make its voice ever louder and more insistent the world over.
