New Horizon emerges in the Isles of Scilly
New Chief Executive to Lead Exciting Projects on the Isles of Scilly
The Council of the Isles of Scilly is seeking a new chief executive to lead the way in this unique and vibrant community. The current chief executive, Paul Masters, joined the council in 2020 and has made significant strides in raising the profile of the islands and driving forward a programme of exciting projects.
With a population of just 2,100, the Isles of Scilly is a small but tight-knit community where everyone knows the CEO. The new chief executive will inherit a council with firm foundations and a team of around 180 staff, making it one of the largest employers on the islands.
The council provides essential services such as running the airport and the fire and rescue service. The new chief executive will continue to raise the profile of the Isles of Scilly and represent it at all levels, including being the accountable manager for the airport.
Adaptability and interpersonal skills are crucial for the council's staff due to the small workforce and wide range of responsibilities. The new chief executive will need to have experience in major project delivery, as they will lead on several exciting projects in 2024, including the development of a new museum and cultural centre.
The programme of projects also includes a housing scheme, modernization of the council's care home, £10m investment in sea defences, plans for a museum and cultural centre, and closer integration between health and social care. The Isles of Scilly is a priority area for Levelling Up funds, and the new chief executive will work on ensuring investment in key areas such as new passenger and freight vessels.
Resilience is a significant aspect of island life due to potential challenges during the winter months when bad weather can disrupt supply ships. The Isles of Scilly offers a unique and healthy work environment, with a stunning natural environment and a focus on active transportation like walking and biking.
The Council of the Isles of Scilly is an integral part of many aspects of community life, and the new chief executive will need to be a prominent figure in the community. The council's staff are strong and supportive, with residents helping each other out in times of need.
The search for the new chief executive is currently underway, but there is no publicly available information on who will be the next chief of the Isles of Scilly Council or when this decision will be announced. The Isles of Scilly is a priority area for Levelling Up funds, and the new chief executive will have the opportunity to make a significant impact on the community and its future.
