The BBC has split the role previously occupied by Matthew Postgate (Chief Technology and Product Officer) into its component parts. One suspects the combined salaries of the new Chief Technology Officer and Chief Product Officer combined will outstrip Mr Postgate's £317k a year. Both new posts report to new COO Leigh Tavaziva, whose salary has yet to be declared.
Storm Fagan, 41, (Deputy Head Girl at Combe Bank School - now Radnor House - Sevenoaks, and BSc International Business and French, Aston) gets the CPO gig. She is based in the hot county of Somerset, just outside Frome, where she once led the W1; she grows dahlias, roses, tomatoes, and forages. Hubby Dan is in research at Bristol University, and likes algae; they have three children. She's currently Chief Product Officer at Just East (the Snoop Dogg one), where she has 145 staff. There will be a few more to keep an eye on at the BBC.
Interim Chief Technology Officer Peter O'Kane is made permanent, and will mind the shop alone until Storm arrives.
Here's the Storm style...
