The BBC has released the job description for the next BBC Breakfast chief presenter as it seeks a replacement for Dan Walker who has left to join Channel 5. The programme's editor Richard Frediani said he is looking for "an outstanding" presenter for the UK's number one rated breakfast show.
The advert, available online from the BBC, says BBC Breakfast is looking for a chief presenter to work alongside Sally Nugent, Naga Munchetty and Charlie Stayt in a role that aims to inform and entertain viewers with everything they need for the day ahead.
No exact salary is given, but the pay band is FP, which is a top-level pay packet for the most senior on-air presenters, according to the National Audit Office. Band F salaries at the BBC are between £60,000 and £110,000, so the successful candidate can expect to be on considerably more than that.
