The process to appoint a new permanent Chief Executive Officer for Central Coast Council is on track, following a confidential discussion at the April 23 Council meeting.
Mayor Jane Smith said she was pleased that the process of selecting a new CEO was on schedule and she expected an announcement to be made in the next few weeks.
“With the assistance of the appointed recruitment agency, Davidson, the Councillor panel made up of myself, Deputy Mayor Holstein and Councillors Burke and Hogan conducted interviews with shortlisted candidates,” Mayor Smith said. “All Councillors were then invited to a second interview and presentation with the final shortlist, and we are now in the process of completing final checks.
“Following tonight’s meeting and the resolution of Council, we will complete the final checks and move to offer the Chief Executive Officer position to our preferred candidate. “This has been an important process and I look forward to being able to provide further information soon,” Mayor Smith said.
