James Harding is playing management hardball at BBC News. Having restructured his top team, four posts have today been formally opened up to internal and external competition, leaving some established figures from the Helen Boaden regime having to apply for posts that look very like the ones they have.
The jobs are Controller, 24/7 and Digital News; Head of Current Affairs; Controller of BBC World Service English; and Controller Daily News Programmes. For each, candidates are invited to submit their "vision for the department" in no more than 1500 words, to be handed in by August 17th. All four posts are graded SM1 - the top band of BBC pay.
