She was the Corporation's chief operating officer, from March 2011 to September 2012〔("Caroline Thomson to leave the BBC" ), BBC Media Centre, 18 September 2012〕 and she stood in for Mark Thompson, the former director general, when necessary.〔("Biographies – Caroline Thomson – Chief Operating Officer ), BBC Press Office〕 Thomson is the elder daughter of Labour peer George Thomson, Baron Thomson of Monifieth.〔William Rodgers, 'Thomson, George Morgan, Baron Thomson of Monifieth (1921–2008)', Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, Jan 2012; online edn, May 2012 (accessed 15 June 2012 )〕 She was educated at Mary Datchelor Girls' School in Camberwell, a grammar school,〔("Corrections and clarifications" ), ''The Guardian'', 30 March 2012〕 and graduated from York University, where she read history and economics.〔("Interview with Carol;ine Thomson" ), University of York website, 19 July 2011〕 She first joined the BBC as a journalist trainee in 1975, ultimately becoming a producer on ''Analysis'' (Radio 4) and later ''Panorama'' (BBC1) before becoming personal assistant to SDP leader Roy Jenkins in 1982. She spent over a decade at Channel 4 from 1984, initially as a commissioning editor, later as Head of Corporate Affairs from 1990, before rejoining the BBC in 1996 as Deputy Director of the World Service. She became the Corporation's Director of Policy and Legal Affairs in July 2000, a job description later expanded to include Strategy, before being promoted to chief operating officer in 2006. In 2011 she was paid £385,000 by the organisation. The Commons Public Accounts Committee suggested that her £670,000 redundancy pay-off was effectively paid to "compensate" her for missing out on the job of director-general.〔Christopher Hope ("BBC gave inflated pay-offs to top staff, NAO says" ), telegraph.co.uk, 1 July 2013〕 In October 2013 she became Executive Director of the English National Ballet Since November 2012, she has been Chair of Digital UK.
