Date Published: 17-Mar-2009
TWO of Galway city’s senior officials are vying for the top job on Clare County Council City Manager Joe MacGrath and Director of Services Ciaran Hayes have both been shortlisted for the position of
County Manager in Clare.
The position of Clare County Manager came up for grabs earlier this year and attracted over two dozen applications from senior local authority officials from various
parts of the country.
It was eventually shortlisted to 13 applicants who were all interviewed for the position in recent weeks and the job has now been whittled down to five hopefuls.
These include Mr MacGrath and Mr Hayes, and Mr MacGrath is considered to be a strong favourite to nab the top job in Clare.
