Summary
The Senior Staff Panel of Kingston upon Thames Council met on Friday 24 October 2025. Councillor Andreas Kirsch, Leader of the Council & Portfolio Holder for Heritage and Culture and Co-Chair - Corporate and Resources Committee, was scheduled to chair the meeting. The main item on the agenda was to interview candidates for the position of Director of Strategy & Transformation.
Appointment of Director of Strategy & Transformation
The panel was scheduled to interview candidates who had been shortlisted for the position of Director of Strategy & Transformation. According to the agenda, members were to be supplied with the interview schedule and supporting information.
Exclusion of Press and Public
The agenda stated that the Panel was asked to exclude the public from the meeting. This request was made under Section 100(A) (4) of the Local Government Act 19721. The reason cited was that exempt information, as defined in paragraphs 1, 2, and 3 of Part 1 of Schedule 12A to the Act, was likely to be disclosed. The agenda notes that the public interest in maintaining the exemption was thought to outweigh the public interest in disclosing the information.
