    BBC Distribution and Business Development (D&BD) is responsible for the distribution of the BBC's television channels and radio stations and the syndication of its online services to licence fee payers in the UK.

    To achieve this, our teams manage the relationships and contracts with suppliers and partners (e.g. pay TV platforms, internet services providers, transmission operators, TV, radio and car manufacturers, and Big Tech companies).

    We also manage the BBC's participation in four joint ventures that provide valuable distribution environments for our services:
    Freeview, YouView, Digital UK/Freesat and Radioplayer.

    And, we take a strategic view of the BBC's approach to distribution in the UK, planning ahead to ensure it keeps pace with changing audience needs and technology.

    This role will primarily focus on the area of long term strategic planning.
    We are seeking someone who is highly motivated and strategic, to join the Digital Transition team within D&BD.

    The Digital Transition (DT) team is responsible for steering the BBC's move away from broadcast and towards all-internet distribution of its UK services (IPTV and online audio) while ensuring that all services remain universally available.

    (To learn more about the questions surrounding the future of TV distribution, you might find it helpful look at this from Ofcom).

    Joining in the relatively early stages of a long term and high profile project, you will have a chance to play a critical role in shaping and informing the BBC's approach to the future of TV and radio distribution through developing our understanding of the challenges and opportunities of Digital Transition, building a strong evidence base for informed decision-making and nurturing supportive partnerships with experts and other stakeholders inside and outside the BBC.

    To play an active role in shaping the strategic planning and preparation for the transition of the BBC's TV and radio services to all-internet distribution.

    To understand, research and analyse technical and strategic questions which will inform the evolution of the future of TV and radio distribution in the UK.

    To advise on solutions for strategic challenges we have identified (and will continue to identify) as part of Digital Transition.

    This could include, for example, looking at the supply chain for IPTV, the role of satellite in universal TV distribution, the approach to TV and radio distribution in other countries or the impact of IPTV on digital inclusion in the UK.

    To produce high quality, clear documentation to inform senior stakeholders about progress on Digital Transition including internal advice (e.g. to Digital Transition Steering Group) and external communications (e.g. to Future TV Task Force).

    To develop open and constructive relationships with internal and external stakeholders including - inside the BBC - Technology, Product, R&D, Policy and Strategy and - outside the BBC - other Public Service Broadcasters, suppliers and industry partners.

    Help to ensure that every aspect of Digital Transition is inclusive and equitable.
    Knowledge, Skills, Training & Experience

    You will bring a good understanding of the distribution challenges facing public service broadcasting and a sense of the technical, financial and regulatory issues that the BBC needs to address in planning for the future of distribution.

    As well as working closely with the other members of the DT team, you will use your excellent stakeholder-management skills to draw on the expertise of colleagues in D&BD and collaborate across many different areas of the BBC and with a wide range of external partners and stakeholders.

    STRATEGIC MINDSET - you think strategically in the context of the BBC and UK media landscape - for example, you can understand and articulate the long-term impact of decisions taken now about Digital Transition.

    You enjoy analysing problems and presenting solutions in writing and verbally. You will have first-class writing and slide-drafting skills.
    PROJECT MANAGEMENT - experience shaping, driving and delivering projects from start to finish, within and across teams.

    Ideally, you have a good understanding of the BBC's current approach to distribution in the UK and of the issues that will affect this in the future.

    Priority consideration means for those employees seeking redeployment their application will be considered alongside anyone else at risk of redundancy, prior to any individuals being considered who are not at risk.

    We don't focus simply on what we do - we also care how we do it. Diversity matters at the BBC.

    We want to attract the broadest range of talented people to be part of the BBC - whether that's to contribute to our programming or our wide range of non-production roles.

    The more diverse our workforce, the better able we are to respond to and reflect our audiences in all their diversity.

    We are committed to equality of opportunity and welcome applications from individuals, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socio-economic background, religion and/or belief.

    We will consider flexible working requests for all roles, unless operational requirements prevent otherwise. #
