Dr Megan Mathias MBE has been appointed as Chief Operating Officer (COO) for the Cabinet Office, following a review of the role of the Chief Secretary.

The new role which will commence in November, will “support the delivery of Government programmes and cross-departmental initiatives whilst also heading up central operational functions”.

Dr Mathias, who received an MBE in 2020 for her role in Jersey’s Covid-19 response, joins the Isle of Man Government following a series of senior public service roles. She was Director of Delivery and Improvement in the Cabinet Office of the Government of Jersey, and holds a PhD in Leadership in Government. 

“I’m very much looking forward to taking up my new post and to supporting the delivery of Government programmes.  I am excited to be working with new colleagues on our delivery of public services to the Isle of Man community," Dr Mathias said.
