Liverpool City Region Combined Authority has made two key leadership hires following a rigorous national recruitment process.
Lorna Rogers has been appointed as director of transformation and digital while Andy King has been appointed as director of clean energy and net zero.
Rogers has almost 30 years’ experience in both public and private sectors and is a prominent UK leader in major programme delivery.
She has worked for the Combined Authority since 2018 and created the award-winning £30m LCR Connect full fibre programme.
