A new chief executive is sweeping through the New Plymouth District Council with a cost-cutting scythe.
The council is facing losing more than a quarter of its senior management staff.
It's part of the first phase of a restructure, with affected staff being informed today and consultation starting later this month.
Chief executive Gareth Green says the initial focus of the review is on the top two tiers of leadership, with the loss of 13 jobs.
