Tim Vaughan (pictured), editor of the Irish Examiner newspaper, has left his role to join Newsweaver as Head of Content and Corporate Communications.

Newsweaver founder and CEO Andrew O’Shaughnessy, said: “I’m delighted that someone of Tim’s calibre is joining our team. His knowledge, experience and skillset is a perfect fit for Newsweaver as we expand our international footprint.”

Newsweaver, best known for its bulk email client, also works with corporates for employee communications solutions. Clients include Rolls-Royce, LinkedIn, Experian, Vodafone, and Aon Hewitt, among several other FTSE and Fortune 1000 companies.
