Opportunity knocks

Talented women - apply for any and all BBC jobs now; the odds are massively in your favour. Lord Hall has appointed just one woman, Anne Bulford, to replace another woman, Zarin Patel, and moved Helen Boaden sideways. Since then we've seen promotions for Danny Cohen, Roger Mosey; an enhanced role for Peter Salmon; James Harding in at News, and blokes to run Newsnight and Today.

Details of James Purnell's management structure in Strategy and Digital (in a pdf straight out of Mad Men) show some 41 key posts, of which 13 are filled by women - and many of them seem to have "business management" in their titles.

The charts also reveal that former Comms boss and hardy swimmer Paul Mylrea is still with Auntie, contrary to previous reports, and in charge of something called the BBC Stakeholder Engagement Plan.
