You will need to provide a clear vision for what the output will look like during breaking as well as planned output. You will manage four Senior News Editors – all new to the role; you will grow and nurture them to be effective leaders of change. Together you will lead a new vision with flexibility at its heart, able to bring in changes where needed while staying true to the principles of the project. Your decision making will be evidence based, working with key partners such as the Audiences team and our commercial colleagues in BBC Studios to monitor audience data and adapt accordingly to serve audiences everywhere.
