Reach, the publisher of Belfast Live and the Northern Ireland edition of the Daily Mirror, has confirmed the appointment of Alistair Bushe to its editorial operations in Ireland.

He joins the company from JPIMedia where he is currently Editor of the News Letter.

Alistair will take on the newly-created role of Senior Editor (Ireland) with a focus on growing customer registrations across Reach’s six digital brands - Belfast Live, Dublin Live, Irish Mirror, Cork Beo, RSVP Live and Buzz - as part of the publisher’s Customer Value Strategy.

Additionally, he will also take over as Editor of the Daily Mirror in Northern Ireland from Kevan Furbank who is Managing Editor across Reach’s growing portfolio of news brands in Ireland.

Chris Sherrard, Reach’s Audience and Content Director for Ireland, said: “I’m delighted that Alistair is to join us at a very exciting time for our plans here.

“I’ve known Alistair for a while and been an admirer of his work from a distance so it’s great news that he’s joining us.

“We have built up a sizeable audience through our national newspapers and websites across Ireland and getting to know our readers much better and creating loyal audiences is a key strategy for the business.

“Alistair’s expertise in driving subscriptions under the News Letter’s model makes him the ideal person to apply that approach to our registrations drive.
