Long-serving Carlisle United media officer to leave club
Carlisle United's long-serving media officer Amy Nixon has announced that she is leaving the club. She says her position has been made redundant by the club and she has decided not to apply for one of the new roles created by the Blues. Nixon has been part of United's media department for 14 years. Her most recent role was digital content manager, but that has now been axed by the club amid a shake-up of their media operations. Nixon's departure follows that of social media manager Rob Elder, who recently announced that he had also been made redundant after just over a year at Brunton Park. Nixon posted on X about her impending departure from the club. "I'm sad to be sharing that after 14 years, my role at Carlisle United has been made redundant and I will be leaving the club ahead of the new season after choosing not to apply for one of the new roles," she said. "I'm open to new opportunities and any shares would be appreciated!" She has been involved at United in 2011 and spent many years working with former media officer Andy Hall in the club's media department. The latest news about United's media personnel comes as the club aim to appoint a new head of media and marketing. In pictures: Carlisle United fans at the Harrogate game! They have also created positions for two media and marketing officers. One of those has been advertised while another has been filled by James Gates, an existing member of the club's media team who joined last year. The overhaul of the media structure follows the internal review of the club which followed last season's relegation. It has involved consultants General Sports Worldwide, who are continuing to work with the club and advise on its commercial activity and its work in other areas such as media. Owner Tom Piatak recently said there would be a "slight shift" with the appointment of a new head of media and marketing. He said the club had suffered for the lack of a marketing presence and that the new figurehead in the role would "tie those two [media and marketing] together." Piatak has also called for improvements to the club's in-house subscription streaming channel CUTV, saying he was "not enthralled" with some of its content after its first year in operation.
