He will hand over his formal Chief Executive responsibilities following February’s council meeting, but will continue work on some key projects while a new Chief Executive is appointed. He will then depart in the summer.

Councillor Martin Hill, Leader of Lincolnshire County Council, said: “Tony joined the council in difficult times, and has been a key part of its transformation which has resulted in Lincolnshire being a high performing, innovative council recognised at a national level.

“I know I speak for many people when I say we have enjoyed working with him and wish him every success for the future.”

Tony said: “It’s been a terrific experience for me throughout the time that I have been here, but the time is right for a change and I want to make that change this year.

“Lincolnshire is a great authority and I am proud of all that’s been achieved working with officers and councillors. I will be leaving the council in good shape to meet its ambitions for the future.”
