Data day today

The BBC is looking for a Data Manager - Curation, Authoring and Metdata.

"For the new Content Metadata workstream in our Content Production Workflows
department, the first task is a ground-up rethink of our approaches to describing and
classifying all of our content -- journalism, audio, video and digital alike.

"This means asking ourselves some big questions: What metadata do we need to deliver a
personalised BBC? What does the future of tagging at the BBC look like? Importantly, as
we increasingly move into subjective metadata, we also have to ask ourselves policy
questions: what would it mean for us to say some programmes are “scary”? What is the
difference between Fleabag and Mrs Brown’s Boys, when the metadata tells us they are
both “Sitcoms”?"

I can certainly help with that one....
