Reports to: Head of Customer Growth About Us 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 news copy; the first to challenge the Westminster lobby system of closed briefings; the first broadsheet to move to the compact format; the first to launch a concise quality compact paper; and the first – and only – major newspaper to successfully transition to fully digital publishing. Through The Independent, Independent TV, eCommerce, indy100, subscriptions and other reader‑revenue initiatives, we continue to bring independent journalism to over 100 million unique global visitors a month. In 2024, our portfolio expanded through a licensing partnership with BuzzFeed Inc., adding BuzzFeed UK, Tasty, Seasoned and HuffPost UK to our brand family.
