Request that approval is granted for the creation of 15 positions at a cost of £490,415 to support the delivery of the sprinkler retro-fitting programme to be delivered by Armstrong Priestley as urgent works as part of the fire sprinkler programme.
Analysis of the requirements of the additional resources required on the LBS staffing structure has identified that there is a requirement for two Business Support Officers (B3), two Team Leaders (SO2), 10 multi-skilled operatives and an electrician. There will also be opportunities for apprentices to be assigned to this important work. The above job roles already exist so would not require the creation of new job descriptions.
LBS cannot recruit to the additional posts required to deliver the prioritised sprinkler programme until they are created on the structure. This will require a key decision.
