The BBC’s head of creative diversity, Joanna Abeyie, is stepping down after less than a year and a half in the role. Her replacement will be the third creative diversity executive in two years at the BBC.
Abeyie is leaving the broadcaster to return to her consultancy business, Blue Moon, which specializes in diversity and inclusion, and executive recruitment.Sources indicate that Abeyie’s departure was first announced by BBC director of content Charlotte Moore on June 22. Her last day in the role is Monday .
Abeyie reported into Okolidoh — who joined the BBC in November — and also worked closely with Moore and director of nations Rhodri Talfan-Davies. In a letter to staff , Okolidoh said she will soon appoint an interim head of creative diversity, and the role will be advertised in due course. The BBC currently has two published diversity plans in place: the Creative Diversity Report, which was published in 2020, and the BBC Workforce Diversity & Inclusion Strategy, which runs from 2021 to 2023.
