Barely has the dust settled over Sachsgate when this job advert lands in Monkey's in-tray: "Compliance editor, Radio 2 and 6 Music". Hmmm, don't all rush at once. The ad is aimed at finding a replacement for Dave Barber, who resigned after finding Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross's prank calls "very funny". The ad says, perhaps unsurprisingly: "Applications from more senior grades will be actively considered and the renumeration package will reflect this". It also says the closing date is December 8 and that lemmings need only apply. Actually, Monkey made that last bit up.
