Nottingham City Council will spend £60,000 to hire a consultant to review its office portfolio
Labour-run Nottingham City Council will be spending £60,000 to hire a consultant to review its office portfolio. The council hopes it will help cut costs and support savings as it seeks to keep the books balanced.
However it is required to be done within a short timeframe and the council does not have the capacity to undertake the work in-house. It has therefore allocated £60,000 to appoint an external consultant through a competitive process.The authority has been struggling to find the in-house expertise in its journey towards financial stability, largely due to a staff "exodus" due to better wages in the private sectors.
