All ITV programme publicists in Manchester, Leeds and London have been told to reapply for their jobs as the workforce gets cut from 75 to 50.
Today Manchester’s publicity department referred us to London for comment, but they were unavailable.

It’s reported that yesterday’s announcement to staff gives them just 10 days to apply.
It’s believed it’s due to a change in focus for the broadcaster, with major programming (Britain’s Got Talent, X Factor) getting more resources.
25 redundancies are expected across programme public relations, although remuneration packages have yet to be announced to staff.
It’s the latest restructuring to be announced by ITV’s new corporate communications director, Mark Gallagher who arrived from Camelot earlier this year.Something to add? Then leave a comment below or email us now.
