List of current BBC newsreaders and reporters

This is a list of newsreaders and journalists currently employed by BBC Television and BBC Radio.
Presenters and journalists appear across BBC television, radio but also contribute to BBC Online.
BBC News provides television journalism to BBC network bulletins (on BBC One and BBC Two) and programmes as well as the BBC News Channel available around the world and in the United Kingdom. BBC News runs BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC World Service as part of its rolling news coverage, journalists and presenters also contribute to podcasts produced by BBC News for BBC Radio 4, as well as solely for BBC Sounds.
The BBC has over 5,500 journalists based both in the United Kingdom and abroad. BBC appointments can be short- or long-term; for example, reporter Peter Bowes revealed on BBC News (broadcast live on 8 September 2020) that Los Angeles has been his home for 25 years.
Many presenters listed here contribute to various BBC News programmes, and some are involved in other BBC projects. Additionally, certain BBC News presenters offer relief presentation for programmes airing on these channels. It's important to note that this list excludes presenters of broadcasts simulcast from the BBC News channel on BBC One overnight or during weekday mornings on BBC Two.
The presenters listed below often contribute to various BBC News programmes and may have roles in other departments within the BBC. Additionally, some BBC News presenters not listed here occasionally fill in on programs broadcast on this channel. Noteworthy exceptions are the presenters of the domestic programmes BBC Breakfast, BBC One bulletins, and BBC Newsnight simulcast on the domestic feed, unless they are a chief presenter.
A significant change occurred on April 3, 2023, when the BBC consolidated its domestic and international rolling news channels into a unified operation. To spearhead news broadcasts on the merged channel during weekdays, the BBC appointed six (original) "chief presenters". This has since grown to twelve. Among them, nine are based in London, while two operate from Washington DC and one operates out of Salford and Singapore.
The programmes where the presenter is the lead presenter are shown here in bold. Chief presenters work across BBC One, BBC Two and primarily the BBC News Channel. The chief presenters broadcast on the channel between 12:00 and 8:00 London time during weekdays. Chief presenters will front BBC News coverage of editorially significant events on weekends including the BBC Weekend News. News broadcasts outside of these hours, and on weekends are fronted by other BBC presenters, many of which previously appeared on the domestic and international rolling news channels prior to their merger. All Chief Presenters cover BBC News programmes.
The list below reflects presenters' normal postings, but can be posted to cover other studios, they often assume News Correspondent roles when not in a presenting capacity, some have specialisms for example Carl Nasman is the BBC's Environment and Climate Change presenter, he is an anchor and correspondent for coverage of COP summits as well as hosting Future Earth.
Some relief presenters have regular privileged cover roles for lunchtime BBC Weekend News on BBC One, The World Today, Verified Live, BBC News Now, and regular slots to improve continuity. For Presenters who only cover BBC News branded programmes this is stated
The broadcasters mentioned below frequently contribute to various BBC Radio programmes and may hold roles in different departments within the BBC. Moreover, some BBC Radio hosts not listed here occasionally step in on programmes aired on this channel.

Correspondents typically cover specific regions or countries. However, during major global events, they may be temporarily reassigned to cover breaking news. For example, during the Libyan crisis in 2011 and the Gaza conflict in 2023, correspondents were reassigned to these areas on a rotational basis. While covering these events, they are often referred to as "World Affairs Correspondents."
Correspondents may also be reassigned to cover stories outside their usual posting. For example, Hugo Bachega, Beirut Correspondent, became a "Middle East Correspondent" while covering the fall of the Assad regime in Syria.
Additionally, correspondents may be reassigned to cover for colleagues on vacation, especially during peak travel times such as the British summer period and Christmas.
Due to the BBC's history and structure there are BBC News Editors and BBC World Service Regional Editors, the distinction between these roles has largely disappeared as the News operations have become streamlined, Regional Editors aid BBC News in times when the Editor is not available.
Only network correspondents are listed, but additional correspondents from national and regional news teams also report for the network.
BBC News employs a number of business and sports presenters to anchor sections of news programmes.
Sport Presenters are employed by BBC Sport but feature, write and report sport stories for BBC News. The large number of sports presenters is due to the Saturday fixture lists where most presenters become correspondents for Final Score. It is not accurate to detail the regular shifts of Sport segment presenters as they are all on a rotating shift basis, and all feature across the segments semi-regularly.
BBC Weather is delivered by a team of broadcast meteorologists and weather presenters to deliver forecasts across its range of television and radio services. Most forecasters work across all mediums and shifts.
