All Change at the Change Team

The Council recently advertised for a 'change manager' at around £40,000 a year.

At the last Council meeting my colleague, Cllr Stoneman, asked how many members of staff were in the Council's Change Management Team. He was told four 'permanent' staff.

So I was surprised to find that the budget for this team is £1.2 million a year. It turns out that there are also 20 temporary members of staff.

So the answer to Cllr Stoneman was a bit less transparent than one might have been expected.
