Trinity Mirror has confirmed that former head of features Deanna Delamotta has left the Manchester Evening News.
Delamotta joined the paper from the Express & Star in Wolverhampton in 2004.
The publisher said that Delamotta had “decided to leave” her role as head of advance content, a position she had held since the paper axed its features desk and Trinity launched a Liverpool-based shared content unit for all of its regional titles.
A spokesperson for Trinity said there were currently no plans to replace Delamotta.
