Sara signs in
Sara Thiam is to be appointed as a collaboration manager to the Glasgow-Edinburgh collaboration intiative.
Sara is currently employed by one of the collaboration initiative’s partners, the City of Edinburgh Council, in their city centre development partnership. Talking about her forthcoming role, Sara said, “Cities are the key drivers of the Scottish economy and have undoubtedly played a large part in Scotland’s success in recent years.
“I am looking forward to working with partners on how we can utilise the best of each city for the good of Scotland as a whole.”
Laura Gordon, the first director of the Glasgow-Edinburgh collaboration initiative, will leave at the end of her contract in February - which had been extended by the collaboration partners. Laura said, “I am extremely pleased to be handing the baton on to such a competent and enthusiastic successor … I believe the need for Scotland’s two principal cities to work together is now firmly instilled in the fabric of businesses in both cities and is recognised as important both locally and nationally.”
