Brendan Quinn is regarded as an expert in web content management, having worked in the field since 1996 as a developer, project manager and technical architect for online publishers and media companies, and as an independent consultant in web content management during 2001. He is now a technical analyst and architect in the Infrastructure group at BBC New Media, specialising in content management issues across the many parts of the BBC.

Effective content management across an enterprise such as the BBC is understandably complex and challenging. Brendan helped to establish the Content Management Culture group within New Media to assist with the business and technical issues linked to the deployment of effective content management across the BBC's New Media operations.
