The Appointments & Disciplinary Committee of Croydon Council is scheduled to convene on Thursday, 15 October 2026. The meeting's agenda includes discussions on senior staffing matters, specifically the extension of a Chief Officer secondment and the appointment of a permanent Chief Executive.

Senior Staffing Matters: Extension of Chief Officer Secondment

The committee is scheduled to consider the extension of a secondment for a Chief Officer within the Assistant Chief Executive's Directorate. This item is listed for discussion in Part A of the meeting, with further consideration to take place in Part B.

Appointment of Permanent Chief Executive

A significant item on the agenda is the appointment of a permanent Chief Executive for the London Borough of Croydon. Previous meetings of the Appointments & Disciplinary Committee on 21 July 2026 and 24 September 2026 have already agreed to proceed with the recruitment process for this role. The report detailing the position, role profile, and agreed salary package is available on the Council's website. The final panel interviews for this appointment are scheduled to be held in a confidential Part B session.

The committee will also review the minutes from previous meetings held on 21, 24, and 25 September 2026. These minutes are divided into Part A and Part B, with Part B sessions typically involving the exclusion of the press and public due to the likely disclosure of exempt information.

The meeting is scheduled to take place at Bernard Weatherill House, Mint Walk, Croydon CR0 1EA. Members of the public are welcome to attend, though parts of the meeting will be held in private. The proceedings can also be viewed via webcast live and after the meeting has concluded.
