Decision details

Cabinet received a report of the Chief Executive seeking Cabinet approval for the recruitment of a new Director of Culture, Communities and Business Services.

Tribute was paid to Karen Murray, who was due to retire later in the year and Members recognised her progression from joining the Council aged 16 as an example of the opportunities available within the organisation.

The proposal to recruit to the post to secure and sustain success in the department was set out and it was noted that there was sufficient time for a full external recruitment process.

The recommendations in the report were proposed and agreed. The decision record is attached.
