Movers and shakers - New year, new position. IWR rounds up recent career shifts for information professionals. If you've had a change of job recently, send details to moversandshakers@iwr.co.uk.
- With the IWR Information Professional of the Year 2005 Award safely tucked under his belt, Euan Semple (pictured) will be leaving the BBC this month to embark on a career in consultancy. Semple, who created and sustained the BBC's innovative DigiLabs, was responsible for introducing a range of social computing applications and services to aid employee communication - everything from bulletin boards to wikis and blogs. His departure is part of a raft of swingeing cutbacks being implemented by director-general Mark Thompson, who is looking to make annual savings of [pounds sterling]355m by 2008. Job losses have been estimated at between 19% and 40%.
- After last year's cutbacks and restructuring at Hermes Pensions Management, former business information services boss Neil Infield has resurfaced at the British Library. Infield is managing the BL's Business and IP Centre as it prepares for a big relaunch next month with updated facilities for the SME market. Neil is a former winner of the IWR Information Professional of the Year, and a leading light in SLA Europe.
