The ad for International Services Director (Senior News Controller) at the BBC has been published, and it still looks like a narrowing of the job Jamie Angus used to do. The three key responsibilities - World Service English, the delivery and production of the Language Services, BBC Monitoring and BBC Media Action. No mention of BBC World, BBC Global News Ltd and bbc.com.
And yet, the postholder seems to have some responsibility for overseas offices. This sentence can read in many different ways, and may need some additional commas...... "As Director, you will be responsible for World Service Group’s overall editorial and strategic direction and financial performance for our News bureaux based around the world, ensuring at all times that our output meets the standards required of the very best of BBC journalism."
