Corporate Services is the title of a group of mainly support and professional services for the council, which has the ambition of delivering high quality and cost effective support for the council, its elected councillors and the services the council provides.
While some important direct services to the public are part of the service grouping - such as licensing and the registration service - for the most part, Corporate Services provide a major range of support services without which the council could not operate effectively.
These range from committee and decision making arrangements to property maintenance, from health and safety to architectural services, from legal advice to staff recruitment, from employee development to property management, from support to elected councillors to quantity surveying - and a lot more besides.
In all of these activities, the service will aim to be effective and responsive, providing guidance as well as support and, at all times, adding value to the services provided.
John O'Hagan, Executive Director, oversees the 5 operational divisions of the Service - Central Services, Design Services, Human Resources, Legal Services and Property Services
