Deputy Governor Franz Manderson confirms retirement plan
Deputy Governor Franz Manderson has announced plans to retire from the post next year, bringing a close to a 44-year career with the Cayman Islands government.
Manderson, who started working for government as an intern in 1981, rose through the ranks to be a respected figurehead for the public service.
In a memo to colleagues Wednesday, he said it had been “the honour of my life” to lead the civil service for the past 14 years.
Manderson announced his decision to close colleagues on Monday and has given official notice to Governor Jane Owen, members of Cabinet and the senior civil service leadership. His retirement will take effect on 7 July next year.
