Buy two

The BBC may be shrinking, but, comparatively, Rhodri Talfan Davies now leads a growing division, BBC Nations.  So what's wrong with a little job creation ?

Where once there was one Chief Financial and Operating Officer (on £240k +), there is now to be a Chief Operating Officer and a Finance Director, salaries yet to be settled. 

The job adverts, presumably drafted by HR supremo Nations, Zoë Baker, or written and signed off by Rhodri, contain weapons-grade, comma-free, twaddle. My favourites

COO - "You’ll help define and translate the strategic and financial vision both current and future forecasting for growth ensuring that your team is able to understand, execute and thrive within their environment....This is a truly hybrid role and will require an individual with experience of operating at a senior operations level"  

Finance Director - "To ensure success it is imperative you have strong financial reporting skills with the ability to operate and influence across a complex matrixed global organisational structure.  The role requires an experienced finance professional who is both good with numbers and understands how to present these into a compelling narrative to a variety of Stakeholders.
