The correct processes were followed in the appointment of the Director of Special Advisers and Chancellor Engagement. Louise Tinsley has been a civil servant for 7 years. She had passed a selection board for a role at director level prior to the election being called. A similar Director role had been filled by a civil servant prior to Louiseā€™s appointment. The incumbent has been appointed for an initial period of 6 months.

The Director of Special Advisers and Chancellor Engagement does not currently have line management responsibilities.
