Bagel Mondays

The commercial wing of the BBC is adding more and more superstructure to BBC Global News, which makes old timers worry about BBC News output being 'edited' in more than one place, and that additional place being New York. 

The latest gig is for a Senior Vice President, Programming and Content Strategy. 

BBC News is the world’s most trusted source for impartial news. At BBC Studios, our Global News Team delivers and commercializes BBC’s news and fact-based content across digital platforms (Web, App, Streaming and off-platform) to audiences outside the UK.  

The new role, only open to those with a work permit will "lead content strategy for new and existing digital services in our portfolio, developing a point of view and strategy that connects the dots between audio, video, and text-based assets, short-form and long-form content and news and documentary. "

The successful candidate will be a "passionate news and entertainment enthusiast, from live programming to docuseries, across all demos and genres". 

To attract the right sort of candidate you get perks not offered on the public service side of the BBC: Medical and dental insurance, pet insurance, free Peloton app membership, gym reimbursement, "Bagel Mondays, Thirsty Thursdays, and more!"
