WORKDan is the Senior Head of Social, TV at the BBC. Never happier than when he’s grumpy, Dan enjoys words, ideas and writing about himself in the third person. He spends his days juggling TikToks, Reels and Shorts, and his nights juggling flaming torches. (That last bit's not true. He can't juggle, and is wary around fire.)Dan currently looks after the 'tv' bits of social media at the BBC, helping get young people excited about all things iPlayer, as well as guiding the corporation's social strategy, thinking about what success looks like across different social platforms, and trying to measure it. When he's not doing that, you might find him watching the telly (it's okay, that's his job).PLAYIn no particular order, Dan is a dad of two, partner of one, man, Londoner, wordsmith, bookworm, creative writer, Master of literature & culture, musical noodler, lover of nonsense, Liverpool supporter and northerner. He's also proud to call himself "a BBC man".
