Role Responsibility
AAC members advise on policy, scrutiny, the allocation of broadcasting time and the strategic development of the BBC’s relationship to appeals. These include BBC Children in Need, Comic Relief, the Radio 4 Appeal, BBC One Lifeline, appeals on behalf of the Disasters Emergency Committee and other projects where funds are raised for charities.
The Ideal Candidates

You need to be currently in an executive leadership role in a charity i.e. a CEO or Senior Director. We’ll also need you to be able to demonstrate expertise in at least 2 of the following: social policy, fundraising, grant making, legal issues, monitoring and evaluation.
