If you cannot mould yourself entirely as you would wish, how can you expect other people to be entirely to your liking?

New top management team in pictures!

Mugshots of the officers who will be forming the joint top management team at Babergh and Mid Suffolk are now available on the Babergh website:


Seeing the officers lined up in this way makes one thing rather obvious: there is room for a few more women at the top.  2 women out of a total management team of  11 is a marginally lower percentage than the rather low number of women councillors at Babergh,  (9 out of 43). Of course those recruiting could only consider those who applied for the positions, and the process was a restricted one, but nonetheless the imbalance is striking.

This aside however the officers are a handsome looking bunch I am sure you will agree!

Observant readers will notice that two of the people in top slots are currently labelled as 'acting'.  This is due to the fact that, having looked internally,  the councils have decided to recruit from outside to fill these positions and the process is still ongoing.  Further announcements are expected in due course.

  1. It's a shame some of the points your advise us of are not made clear to us by Whitehall. It is never nice to increase someone's 'Tax Bill', but a judgment has to be made in the long view, not just the short.

    That is why you were elected, and I am glad I do not have to always take the 'flack' of the decisions made by the council.

    Thank you for being my defence!
