• Managing the relationships with divisions, Press Office, Director-Generals office or other internal/external colleagues.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• A keen interest and good knowledge of BBC content, understanding of BBC policies, editorial guidelines and awareness of issues likely to concern audiences.
• Ability to develop and maintain relationships at a number of levels across the BBC and externally.
• Able to work under pressure, prioritise and plan taking into account relevant issues and factors such as deadlines and resources.
