Executive Hiring News: Former BBC chief starts work at New York Times
25 November, 2012
Mark Thompson, former Director General of the BBC, has started his new job as Chief Executive Officer of the New York Times. The TIMES concluded its executive search in August, approximately eight months after the departure of former CEO Janet Robinson, announcing that Thompson’s experience in global media is exactly what it was looking for.
Thompson arrives at a time of transition for the iconic news outlet, Reuters reported. Chairman Arthur Sulzberger said in a memo that “Mark will lead us as we continue our digital transformation, bolster our international growth, drive our productivity and introduce new technologies that will help us become better storytellers and enrich the experience for our readers and viewers."
Given the ongoing investigation into scandals at the BBC, some charge that Thompson will be distracted from the tasks of leadership, even going so far as to contend that he is unfit. Nevertheless Thompson appears focused on his new position, noting that if necessary he will give British lawmakers his full cooperation.
Thompson, who was in charge of the BBC for eight years, is credited with dramatically extending the global reach of the BBC, which has enjoyed a number of successful television exports in recent years. He started his career at the BBC in 1979, briefly leaving the fold in 2002 to become CEO of Channel 4 Television, but returning in 2004 as Director General.
While he has not yet disclosed his future plans for the company, Thompson has declared it a "privilege" to be working for the New York Times and said that he is looking forward to extending the brand in both the print and digital markets.
The company, which also owns the International Herald Times and the Boston Globe group of newspapers, has been controlled by the Ochs-Sulzberger family for over 100 years. It has had to forego a dividend since 2009, but industry analysts expect the dividend to be reinstated since the sale of some business assets will leave the TIMES with about $1 billion in cash at year’s end.
"The first thing he [Thompson] will have to focus on is the balance sheet," said Barclay's analyst Kannan Venkateshwar. "Debt is about $700 million and therefore is very manageable in the context of cash." In addition, the company will have to increase its circulation revenue in order to make up for advertising losses. https://www.boyden.com/media/7032/13562/executive_hiring_news_fo/index.html
