The new chief executive of Mansfield District Council has set out how he plans to help residents in the district under his leadership, including bringing in more business and job opportunities. Adam Hill has worked within local authorities across the county for 33 years, and was the deputy chief executive at the City and County of Swansea Council in his previous role.
Mr Hill's first ever job was in Mansfield, as a lifeguard and swimming instructor, and feels his new role is a "full circle" for him. He started his new role on August 1 following the announcement in May.
Speaking for the first time as CEO at Mansfield District Council, Mr Hill has ambitions to provide more skilled jobs for residents in the area by attracting more business and building more infrastructure. He says longer term, poverty in the area will be addressed along with tackling the energy crisis.
