TOP APPOINTMENT WELCOMED BY BRIGG COUNCILLOR


Brigg's Coun Rob Waltham (PICTURED) has welcomed the appointment of an officer to fill a top job at  North Lincolnshire Council.
Denise Hyde has been appointed as the new Executive Director, People and Transformation.
A spokeswoman for the local authority told Brigg Blog this appointment was the first part of a major restructure of the council's senior management that will save around £850,000 and enable it to meet key challenges.
Coun Waltham, Deputy Leader of North Lincolnshire Council, said: "“Denise comes with an excellent track record of success and is nationally recognised as an outstanding leader. I am confident that Denise will deliver for our residents and do a great job in helping the council move to the next level. 
“While Denise has been with the council, we have seen some fantastic successes in education, children’s and adult social care – many of which have received national recognition. North Lincolnshire is a top performing council and I am confident that with Denise at the helm, we can achieve even greater things. 
“The new look council will be more commercially focussed and rightly so. We need to maximise on opportunities to generate more income to meet future financial challenges and continue to deliver to our residents.”
