The BBC is the world’s leading public service broadcaster. Its mission – to inform, educate and entertain – is unchanging, but the way it fulfils that mission must evolve over time.
The BBC Trust is seeking to appoint a new Director-General of the British Broadcasting Corporation. The Director-General is the Chief Executive Officer of the BBC and its Editor-in-Chief: the editorial, operational and creative leader of the organisation. Leading a significant global workforce, the Director-General is responsible for the Corporation’s services in the UK and around the world.
In a rapidly changing world, the Director-General will need to make sure the BBC always holds the trust of the people who pay for it throughout the UK and distinguishes itself from the rest of the market – through the best possible content, effective distribution and organisational efficiency. The Director-General will also need to lead a digital BBC that can make the most of new technologies and the global, commercial possibilities that they bring.
The Trust is looking for an inspirational leader with the strong, clear vision that will take the BBC through the next review of the Corporation’s Charter, ready for the world as it will be in 10 or 15 years’ time.
You will bring extensive experience of leadership in a creative organisation, and demonstrate a clear understanding of the public service ethos underlying the BBC.

The closing date for applications is 7 May 2012.
