SLCC CEO Matthew Vickers announces resignation to join Ombudsman Services

The Scottish Legal Complaints Commission has announced the resignation of its Chief Executive Officer, Matthew Vickers, who is resigning to take up the post of Deputy Chief Ombudsman at Ombudsman Services, a not-for-profit organisation which provides independent dispute resolution for the communication, energy and property sectors.

He leaves the SLCC in March and the Commission has started the process of finding a successor. SLCC Chair, Bill Brackenridge commented “We are grateful to Matt for his leadership and contribution since he joined the SLCC as CEO in June 2012. He and the management and staff have worked hard to make the SLCC a more efficient, effective and influential organisation. We are now well established as an independent and impartial body. Of course, we recognise that there is a great deal of work to be done and we have started our search to find a CEO who will help us to tackle it."
