BT will today appoint a former BBC employee as its first head of media and convergence policy.
The move comes as BT develops its BT Vision DTT-DSL hybrid television service and while Ofcom reviews the way it regulates pay TV services.
Simon Milner, a policy adviser at the broadcaster until 2005, is expected to be promoted to the role.
Milner said: "Convergence has been a hot debating topic for at least a decade. For BT and our customers, it's now a reality and it's generating policy conundrums which need tackling."
BT Vision doubled its subscribers to 150,000 in the final three months of last year.
