LJ has spent the last four years as a presenter, producer and director for BBC Click, and also regularly writes and presents for the BBC Tech Desk’s Video On Demand Section. She contributes as an expert guest on many TV sofas, including BBC Breakfast, News Channel, BBC World News, Radio 4, Radio Scotland and more.

Click is the BBC’s flagship technology programme – it’s the most watched programme on the Global iPlayer and broadcasts on BBC News and BBC2 in the UK and BBC World News worldwide. LJ, like most people who work on Click, is a self-shooting producer reporter who enjoys a large degree of autonomy on the programme. From pitching a feature idea to filming and presenting reports, working on Click requires a lot of production knowledge – sometimes including being responsible for programme delivery. She has scripted, shot and spoken on screen from Tokyo to Texas, and most places in between.

LJ was the creator of ‘Click Bits’ a 3 minute technology newsburst which successfully ran for 14 episodes and was the proof of concept and fore-runner to the BBC Global Technology Newsbelt - which at the last count is translated into 17 languages.

She enjoys a degree of notoriety from her stint at QVC, the Shopping Channel, where she was the gadget and technology expert for 6 years. This gave her a unique insight into industry practice, product lifecycles, consumer behaviour and what constitutes successful behaviour for start-ups and small businesses.

LJ has an incredibly varied and rich experience of presenting – from pitching ideas to persuading people to buy.

She particularly enjoys helping people to grow more confident in their presenting abilities.

here’s an Example of slides from ‘Present your ideas persuasively’ – this was prepared and presented at an event for young intelligent people who needed to know how to get the people who matter to listen to their great idea.

Music Qualifications

LJ Rich — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 16:23:54 +0000

LJ’s Perfect Pitch means everything and everyone has a note and a key.

She can hear anything and play it fully orchestrated on the piano, which gives her an incredibly deep understanding of music. Laura-Jane holds a Grade 8 distinction in Piano and Grade 7 in recorder. She also holds Grade 7 in Music theory. After gaining a scholarship to the Royal College of Music aged 11, she continued on to university, where she read Music at Christ Church College, Oxford.

Laura-Jane’s music degree included the Physics of Music and Acoustics – as well as Music History, Composition theory and Music Analysis. She went on to perform at many venues – from cruise ships to concert halls. She has performed both in open-air festivals, and controlled studio environments. Laura-Jane has spoken on the BBC explaining music copyright, how MP3s work and has also played the piano on News At Ten talking about songs that sound alike- and explaining why that is the case.

LJ was also one of the few people this century to be recorded live playing the piano into a Wax Cylinder for BBC Technology Desk.
