Network Media Hub (NMH) journalist Iréne-Mari van der Walt has scooped the award for best performer at the company.

Van der Walt took home the NMH Newsroom Employee of the Year 2024 award at a celebration on Friday.

Over the past decade, NMH has undergone substantial and innovative changes, and as an employee of a multimedia organisation, journalists are now engaged in much more than just writing articles. In Van der Walt’s case, her award reflects her overall performance, including writing and producing her news stories in a variety of ways for sharing across every print, online and television channel at NMH.

NMH is dedicated to delivering news to customers and consumers wherever they are, through whatever medium or channel they prefer and at a time that suits their personal needs and requirements.

This requires a much greater effort and skillset from news reporters, extending beyond the traditional scope of a journalist's duties. Readers can look forward to more on this on page 8 of Tuesday's Market Watch edition.
