Former Radio 1 music programmer takes on Radio 2 job

Napster UK programming chief Jeff Smith is returning to the BBC to take over the top music job at Radio 2, succeeding Colin Martin.

Jeff Smith, currently programming chief at Napster UK, is returning to the Beeb to take over the top music job at the really rather influential BBC Radio 2 where music man Colin Martin is, as previously reported, due to step down shortly. Smith, who has previously worked in music programming roles at both Capital and BBC Radio 1, should be a popular choice among the plugging community given his past credentials.
