'WE AREN'T GOING TO RUSH IT... WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE GET THE RIGHT PERSON'

- By ALEC DOYLE Local Democracy Reporter

WREXHAM Council has only just started the search for a new chief executive - seven months after its previous boss stepped down.

Applicants have just three weeks to apply according to a new job advert published on the council website on Thursday. Depending on their pay negotiations, the successful applicant could also become the fifth highest paid council chief executive in Wales.

The last permanent chief executive - Ian Bancroft - left in November. The following month Alwyn Jones, Wrexham’s Chief Officer for Social Care, was appointed the interim chief executive for six months, to give Wrexham time to conduct a thorough search for a permanent successor.
