Transformation

At Cheshire East Council, we have faced unprecedented challenges head-on to transform adversity into opportunity.

We are making remarkable strides forward and are transforming our organisation. This means the council is changing to deliver better outcomes for the people of Cheshire East.

We have the plans we need, and we must now deliver them quickly to realise our vision of prosperity and wellbeing for all.

Rob Polkinghorne

Chief Executive

“Our journey is far from over, and we must deliver the plans we have in place. The future of Cheshire East is bright and full of promise, driven by our shared commitment to enhancing the lives of our residents.”

Dami Awobajo

Assistant Chief Executive

“Every resident in Cheshire East who contacts us will get a great response that is meaningful and helpful to them - showing the value of us as a council.”

Ashley Hughes

Executive Director of Resources, Section 151 Officer

“To me, transformation means doing things fundamentally differently to the way we currently do them. We should be transforming services for residents and businesses for the better, as better outcomes cost us less.”

Phil Cresswell

Executive Director of Place

“The Place programme drives transformation across many areas. Asset transformation will act as a catalyst for other services to transform, including our libraries, housing and regeneration. Our transport infrastructure can also be maximised. Tatton Park offers a chance for a long-term plan for our most accessible asset, with exciting future plans.”

Janet Witowski

Acting Governance, Compliance and Monitoring Officer

“For me, our transformation journey is about creating a more efficient, sustainable and innovative organisation - one which maximises the benefits for our residents, businesses and partners.”
