\n\tThe BBC has appointed Rhodri Talfan Davies as deputy director general, following his tenure as interim chief of the broadcaster before Matt Brittin was hired.<\/p>\n
\n\tHe might be second-in-command to Brittin, who officially joined the BBC last month after serving as president of EMEA business and operations at Google. Davies was chosen after a \u201ccompetitive internal recruitment process,\u201d in keeping with a press release from the BBC.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cRhodri was the outstanding alternative amongst several very strong candidates,\u201d Brittin said in an announcement. \u201cHe’s a trusted, experienced leader \u2014 the BBC\u2019s values seem woven into his DNA. I\u2019ve got to know him myself in recent months and I\u2019ve seen at first-hand how invaluable his judgment, breadth of experience and sense of purpose are to this organization. He’s steeped within the BBC\u2019s public service mission while sharing my ambition and sense of urgency to reinvent the BBC for the longer term.\u201d<\/p>\n
