Katy Searle, c51, (Hinchley Wood School and Esher Sixth Form College) is leaving BBC News later this year. Since last May she's been interim Senior Controller, Programmes & Commissioning, BBC News, which won her a seat on the News Board. This followed the surprise departure of Jamie Angus for the Middle East.
The interim bit, in theory, should have come to an end with the appointment of John McAndrew from GB News as Director of News Programmes, which is the new name for Katy's temporary job. One presumes she doesn't want to go back to her base job, as Executive Editor Politics.
