Appointment of Corporate Director, Community To agree the candidates to be invited to interview for the post of Corporate Director, Community. Minutes: A representative from Gatenby Sanderson explained the process that had been followed to produce the list of candidates for shortlisting and introduced the report on each candidate. The Chair invited Members of the Panel to ask questions and seek clarification.
A Member of the opposition stated that the Conservative Group Members on the Panel were unable to attend on the date set for the next Chief Officers’ Employment Panel meeting when the interviews of the shortlisted candidates would take place and felt that there was no mileage in them participating in the shortlisting. In response, the Chair stated that he would welcome input from the opposition Members and that if they were unable to attend the next meeting, there was a wealth of experienced opposition Members any of whom could serve on the Panel as a nominee.
Having completed the presentation and responded to questions, the Chair thanked the representative from Gatenby Sanderson who withdrew from the meeting. Members discussed their assessment of each candidate prior to voting on who should be shortlisted. The Panel decided to shortlist four of the five candidates.
RESOLVED: That four of the five candidates be shortlisted for interview.
[Note: Councillors Susan Hall and Barry Macleod-Cullinane wished to be recorded as having abstained from voting.] |
