Manchester’s property community has lamented the forthcoming exit of the city council’s strategic director of growth and development who has been in post for less than a year and urged leaders to appoint a replacement with similar qualifications and emphasis on design.
Based in the Midlands prior to taking the role last July, Louise Wyman has “reflected on the past year and decided that she wants to be closer to family”, Manchester City Council said in a statement this week.
A qualified landscape architect with a masters degree from Harvard University, Wyman joined Manchester City Council from the West Midlands Combined Authority, where she was director of design and development. She is also a member of the Design Group of the National Infrastructure Commission, and previously held posts at Government body Homes England and its predecessor the Homes and Communities Agency, including as large sites lead for 13 years.

Multi-million-pound plans to transform a major part of Ricoh Arena have been submitted to Coventry City Council.
The Wasps Group is aiming to develop a new pavilion entrance at the south side of the venue, along with a Commonwealth Convention Centre in the existing lower halls.
The new south pavilion - complete with reception pods and digital signage - would provide seamless access between Ricoh Arena’s Commonwealth Convention Centre and the rest of the venue, which, between them, boast more than 8,000 square metres of indoor conference and exhibition event space.
