Ex-Google boss Matt Brittin confirmed as new BBC director general | BBC News


Former Google executive Matt Brittin has been confirmed as the BBC’s new director general.

The ex-president of Google’s Europe, Middle East and Africa operations will replace Tim Davie, who said he was resigning in November following the controversy over how Panorama edited a speech by US President Donald Trump.

BBC chairman Samir Shah said Brittin, who left Google in 2025 after 18 years, "brings to the BBC deep experience of leading a high-profile and highly-complex organisation through transformation".

Brittin, 57, said he "can’t wait to start this work", describing it as "a moment of real risk, yet also real opportunity".
