A guide to recruiting in senior posts has been created for council leadership teams by the representative body for chief executives.
Solace, in partnership with the Local Government Association, has launched a practical guide aimed at both candidates and the elected members and officers.
Finding the Perfect Fit provides a series of clear and structured pointers and questions for organisations and candidates on how to plan for an effective senior recruitment process.
The aim is to reduce the risk – and costs – of bad recruitment decisions.
