Time for a change

BBC staff will be delighted to learn that their HR service is being transformed. New HR Director Valerie Hughes D'Aeth (£295,000pa) is seeking a Programme Director (not that sort of programme, silly) on c£130k over a 12 to 18 month contract. Unlike personnel officers who survive the transformation, the successful candidate can choose to work in either London or Birmingham

You will be accountable for shaping, influencing and implementing the numerous people changes and projects across the BBC which together form HR transformation. This includes a new operating model, technology, process simplification, HR operating model, outsourcing contracts and line manager self-service. 

You will articulate the vision for the programme and secure engagement from the Executive Team and key stakeholders for its achievement and will also be responsible for delivering the communication on the programme’s vision and strategy.

As well as Valerie and this new person, there are five people with HR in their title on the BBC disclosed salary list, taking £157,800pa, £137,800, £169,400, £189,600, and £146,200.
