“I’m really excited about the wider digital and ‘smart’ work that is going on across the city and I’ll be helping with this,” he said.
Gannon has a long background in local government, with experience in a range of the areas that he will be responsible for in the role.
“My last local government role was at Nottingham City Council where I was CIO Director of Customer Access,” he told PT.
“Most recently, I was in the private sector working for a consultancy firm which advises public sector organisations on how to thrive in the information economy by adopting the latest thinking on digital. It feels, therefore, that the role here is a perfect fit for me and I’m really excited about working with the amazing talent in the city to make a real difference for Sheffield.”
Gannon told PT that there were a number of reasons he was attracted to the role.
“I live in Sheffield and I love the place so the chance to be able to make a real difference to the lives of the people in the city was the key attraction for me,” he said.
Gannon added: “It has two excellent universities and a thriving digital sector and I was just really excited at the prospect of getting involved in such an ambitious and creative environment and being able to contribute to it.”
