Troon councillor Bill McIntosh has been elected Leader of South Ayrshire Council.

Councillor McIntosh (62), formerly Portfolio Holder for Resource and Performance, was appointed leader following the retirement of Councillor Hugh Hunter, who had served as Leader since May 2007.

He was first elected as a Councillor for the Troon ward in May 1999 following a successful career in the banking industry.

He has been active in the local community as a member of the Troon Business Association and, prior to his election to South Ayrshire Council in 1999, as a Troon community councillor.

In 1988, he took early retirement in order to set up his own business - McIntosh Management - which provided business advice for small and medium sized enterprises.

Councillor McIntosh, who is a member of the Chartered Institute of Bankers in Scotland (MCIBS), is married to Wilma and has a grown-up son and daughter.
