Senior BBC managers, like Alex Kay-Jelski and Eddy Datubo, hail from diverse backgrounds. According to the BBC's annual report, senior LGBT leaders earn 15.6% more than their heterosexual counterparts. Similarly, senior leaders from black, Asian, and other minority ethnic backgrounds earn an average of 12.6% more than their white counterparts. The report attributes these earnings discrepancies to workforce dynamics, refuting any suggestions of unequal pay.
