The South & East Lincolnshire Councils Partnership has welcomed Pranali Parikh as the Partnership’s Director of Economic Development.

 

Pranali joins the Partnership’s Senior Leadership Team with a wealth of experience across the economic development sector, including both public and private.

 

Her directorate responsibilities will be to deliver planning, economy and cultural development and she will be instrumental in driving forward the growth ambitions and priorities for the Partnership.

 

In her previous role, Pranali was Director for Growth and Regeneration at Melton Borough Council for six years where she was pivotal in the council’s successful Levelling Up funding bid, enhancing regeneration and boosting the town’s reputation as the ‘rural capital of food.’

 

Partnership working has been a consistent theme for Pranali, having also worked as Regeneration Service Manager for Alliance of High Peak Borough Council and Staffordshire Moorlands District Council.

 

Her first role in local Government was Principal Regeneration Manager for Derby City Council and before that she was Urban Design Manager at Derby Cityscape Ltd and Urban Designer at Atkins Ltd.

 

Pranali said: “I am absolutely delighted and excited to join the South & East Lincolnshire Councils Partnership. I am very much looking forward to getting really engrained into the sub-region, working with the Councils’ leaders, portfolio holders and stakeholders on their priorities as well as understanding local challenges and seeking solutions.  
“I am really looking forward to bringing my expertise and insights to the delivery of projects and schemes which support growth and the local economy in south and east Lincolnshire.”
Rob Barlow, Chief Executive, said: “I am really pleased that Pranali has joined our Senior Leadership Team at what is an exciting time for the Partnership. By working collaboratively, the Partnership has been really successful in bringing in Government funding to support economic growth for the entire sub-region.
“This is a new role and was highly competitive so I am delighted the recruitment process has resulted in Pranali joining the team to help drive forward the ambitions of the Partnership.”
