The print editor will be tasked with ensuring web content is "efficiently repurposed for the paper".

The Guardian is currently advertising for a print editor, which job will be to make sure website content is "efficiently repurposed for the paper".

This new role proves that The Guardian is now focused on producing new content for the website.

Guardian News and Media employs around 950 editorial staff, most of whom are dedicated to producing digital content.

Titles including the Daily Mail, however, have separate teams for producing print and online content.

Sales of print copies of The Guardian fell by 7% year on year in August 2015, to 165, 290.

In contrast to this, TheGuardian.com saw 7.5M daily unique browsers on average, which was an increase of 29.5%.
