Testimonials

“iESE has worked with us to identify ways to deliver a best-in-class planning service. This meant working closely with customers, officers and members. The iESE approach has been a good fit for Hambleton, working in partnership and sharing a range of transformational change techniques with us.”

Dr Justin Ives, Chief Executive,Hambleton District Council

"iESE really understands local government. Other advisors could help us restructure, but it takes a different kind of organisation to help change a culture."

Sophie Hosking, Executive Director, Service Delivery and Commercial Development

“The customer-centric model coupled with potential savings highlighted by iESE - around £1.4m - was too interesting to ignore. iESE took us to see another Local Authority they had worked with. We were very impressed and have found the knowledge-sharing beneficial.”

Jeff Stack, Chief Executive, Broxbourne Borough Council

"Taking savings to ever increasing levels meant having to undertake whole system reviews rather than relying on more limited tactical changes. iESE brought a certainty born out of practical experience to those parts of the overall programme that they supported’.

Timothy Wheadon, Chief Executive, Bracknell Forest Council
