Liverpool Council's director of finance and deputy chief executive Mel Creighton has quit in the wake of a £16 million energy contract disaster that has engulfed the local authority.
Mayor Joanne Anderson has today confirmed that Mel Creighton has resigned and will leave her role at the end of August. She has been with the council for three-and-a-half years.
It is understood that prior to her resignation, Ms Creighton had been signed off work following the revelations about a series of disastrous mistakes at the council over renewing an energy contract.
