Senior Management Arrangements
Decision Maker: Cabinet
Decision status: For Determination
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Decision:
The Cabinet considered a report of the Chief Executive setting out proposed changes to the senior management arrangements of the Council.
Recommended:
1. That the revised structure at Senior Management level, as set out in Appendix 1 to the submitted report, including the deletion of the Department of the Chief Executive, be approved.
2. That it be noted that the appropriate changes to the Senior Management Appraisal System will also be made to reflect this new structure.
3. That it be noted that the Senior Managers Pay Panel will consider senior management salaries in the context of these changes and current market conditions and will make recommendations to Cabinet in this respect at the November meeting.
Reasons for Decision:
To refocus the senior leadership of the organisation in order to deliver the Southend 2050 ambitions.
Other options:
None – maintaining the current senior management arrangements will impede the Council’s transition to a modern agile organisation equipped to face future challenges.
