About us...
Welcome to Central Independent News and Media. This introductory tour has been designed to give you an insight into what it would be like to work for a major weekly newspaper group.
We'll take you through some of the departments and tell you what you can expect as an employee.
As the areas's leading weekly newspaper, The Tamworth Herald has established itself firmly in the hearts of the community since 1985.
Over recent years we've built our media portfolio by including publications such as the Tamworth, Atherstone and Coleshill Heralds, the Lichfield, Burntwood, Cannock and Rugeley Mercurys, Sutton Coldfield and Great Barr Observers and the Walsall Advertiser and our internet offerings www.thisistamworth.co.uk www.thisislichfield.co.uk www.suttoncoldfield.co.uk www.thisiswalsall.co.uk
The term "fast moving consumer goods" is used to describe the products of a vast number of industries, but there is nothing faster moving than an industry that produces a brand new product every week. This time-sensitive, deadline driven environment makes for a dynamic, lively and productive atmosphere.
Launched after the demise of the short-lived Sutton Coldfield Times, the Observer soon cemented its position for campaigning journalism and entertaining writing.
Delivering to more than 57,000 homes in the former Royal Town of Sutton Coldfield and its surrounding areas, the multi award-winning Observer has scooped many of British Journalism's biggest prizes.
These include:
Newspaper Society Free Newspaper of the Year
Newspaper Society News Journalist of the Year (three times)
Newspaper Society Feature Journalist of the Year (twice)
Midlands Media Awards News Journalist of the Year
Newspaper Society Free Weekly Photographer of the Year
Newspaper Society Campaign of the Year
Our office is located in the heart of Sutton Coldfield on the Birmingham Road, along with our Head Office based in Ventura Park in Tamworth, easily accessible by car.
