Taxpayers in both islands will share the costs of John Curran’s salary, and the annual saving to Jersey taxpayers could be as much as £60,000, with another £60,000 saved in one-off appointment costs.
Mr Curran is the director general of Guernsey’s Office of Utility Regulation. He will succeed outgoing Jersey Competition Regulatory Authority chief executive Chuck Webb in September.
He will continue to live in Guernsey but will travel to Jersey regularly as part of his work.
