West Berkshire Council’s boss steps down for ‘personal reasons’
West Berkshire Council’s CEO has stepped down.
Nigel Lynn had been in post for three years, and cites personal reasons for the move.
In a statement, the council said he will be taking leave pending the appointment of an interim chief executive, which will take place at an extraordinary meeting of council in early November.
The council said it thanked him for his service during his time in West Berkshire and wished him the best in his future endeavours.
A statement from Nigel added: “It’s been a privilege to serve the people of West Berkshire for the last three years as chief executive of the council,” said Mr Lynn.
“The energy, commitment and professionalism of my staff and our partners to deliver great services for our residents has been remarkable.
“I wish the council every success with its future endeavours, whilst I pursue new opportunities.”
