BBC North HR boss quits in relocation dispute
The head of HR for BBC North – tasked with the job of selling the mass relocation to employees – has stunned the corporation by quitting after refusing to make the permanent move to Salford Quays himself.
Paul Gaskin had only been in the £190,000 role for a matter of months, and has left his post after failing to commit to the massive BBC relocation project.
He had the key HR role of ‘meeting the long term strategic objectives for BBC North’ – a major part of which was the important job of convincing hundreds of BBC staff of the benefits of the move.
According to a source quoted in the Mail on Sunday, the news is extremely worrying for whole BBC North project:
“There are real worries the BBC move north is facing problems. It doesn’t make sense for him to quit such a big job in the middle of such a prestigious project.”
