Senior officer structure
Elected councillors provide the policies and the paid employees - council officers - put them into practice. The council employs about 350 staff who are responsible for a wide range of services that benefit the local community.
The Senior Leadership Team manages the activities of the council staff and advises councillors on the potential implications of strategic decisions.
By law, senior council staff are not allowed to take part in any party political activity and are expected to advise and assist all councillors irrespective of their political affiliation.
