Since it is hot off the press, I believe that I can claim to be the first to display to the world a picture of our very exciting and capable new Chief Executive Officer Charlie Adan.Prior to coming to Suffolk to act as joint CEO for Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council, Charlie was deputy Chief Executive in Hereford. She is a lawyer by training, and has considerable experience in change management. I was lucky enough to be on one of the panels responsible for the selection and am confident that she is the right person for the job.
She has family ties to Suffolk too, which is a bonus.
I am not at liberty to disclose her salary but I can tell you that, due to the fact that she is a 'shared resource', she will cost us less than half than Babergh's last CEO.
