Chief Executive Officer resignation
We can confirm that James Hassett, Chief Executive of Arun District Council has tendered his resignation.
Leader of the Council, Shaun Gunner said:
“James came to us from Somerset West and Taunton in October 2021 originally as the interim CEO.
Under James we have begun our transition to becoming a more modern, more responsive and more ambitious organisation in lots of ways. It remains my view that he was the right man for the job, and the right person to move Arun forwards. Although I understand his reasons, I am sad to see James leave.
Both elected members and officers share the same goal and are committed to providing quality services in our district and will continue the work that we are doing to make Arun a better place to live work and visit.
We ask that you bear with us as we navigate the coming weeks and months.”
