BBC Worldwide's Simon Kendall has been appointed as Brand Manager for 'Top of the Pops', with effect from May 6.
Reporting to BBC Music's Marketing and Business Director, Anna Broughton, Simon will manage the successful 'Top of the Pops' brand across all media and markets worldwide and also play a pivotal role in the brand team.
