The staff will manage the council's commercial portfolio
Nottingham City Council is spending more money on hiring agency staff to work at the authority after a "disappointing" recruitment drive. The council has been spending large sums on consultants and agency staff after highlighting a "serious" shortage of staff last year.
The council says this information is "exempt" as it relates to the "financial and business affairs" of the authority. But in terms of what the four agency staff will be doing, the council says they will be based in its property department.In a decision document published at the beginning of July, the authority said: "The council has been out to advert on two occasions for the recruitment of permanent property staff, the outcome of which has largely been disappointing.
The review will consider whether the council should keep these assets within its portfolio or not as it continues to try and make savings. A report on this matter is due towards the end of July.
