We’ll look to our new Chief Executive to be a catalyst for innovation and improvement – ensuring that effective performance management establishes clarity on our objectives and how we will measure progress towards these. You’ll work closely with political leadership to ensure clarity and consensus on our strategic direction and then ensure that we make the very best use of resources available to deliver. We are looking for someone who is a proven leader, who can bring about operational and cultural change and who has a thorough understanding of local government and working in a political setting.
