<p>Anne Bulford has been praised for her innovations at the BBC, and said it was an “honour” to be the first woman to achieve her role at the broadcaster.</p>
<p>Director General Tony Hall hailed her as an “inspirational leader”, who helped changed BBC working practices.</p>
<p>Bulford will leave the BBC after six years as Mr Hall’s deputy.</p>
<p>She said: “It’s been an honour to be the first woman Deputy Director General of the BBC and I’m proud of what we’ve achieved since 2013.</p>
<p>“The BBC is an amazing organisation, with so many talented people. I feel I’m leaving the BBC in a stronger position and I’d like to thank Tony, my colleagues and especially all my teams for their contribution and hard work.”</p>
<p>Mr Hall has praised his departing colleague for her work in transforming the HR, finances, legal, and technological practices of the BBC and handling a daunting portfolio of responsibilities.</p>
<blockquote><p>Anne leaves the BBC a stronger organisation than the one she joined six years ago</p></blockquote>
<p>He said: “Anne has been an inspirational leader. She has brought real insight and determination in bringing change to the BBC. Her achievements at the BBC are many – she has ensured the BBC continues to innovate and deliver hugely popular services to the public.</p>
<p>“She has vastly improved the BBC’s efficiency to industry leading levels. She has led a transformation in the BBC’s working practices.</p>
<p>“Anne leaves the BBC a stronger organisation than the one she joined six years ago.</p>
<p>“She has been a first class colleague and an absolute pleasure to work with. I wish her every success for the future.”</p>
<p>Bulford is set to pursue non-executive roles outside the BBC.</p>
