West Midlands CA chief executive
Deborah Cadman has taken the same role at Birmingham City Council on an interim basis. Ms Cadman will serve for the period up to the 2022 Commonwealth Games and local elections, after which the recruitment of a permanent chief will begin.
In February the previous interim,
Chris Naylor, returned to Barking & Dagenham LBC after a secondment in Birmingham concluded several months earlier than planned. Ms Cadman was the first permanent chief executive of the combined authority when it was formed in 2017, having previously been chief executive of Suffolk CC.
Ms Cadman, who described herself as “a Brummie born and bred”, said the opportunity to become chief executive was “one I just couldn’t turn down”.
