Leslie Evans Biography

Leslie Evans is one of the most popular and richest Civil Servant who was born on December 11, 1958 in Northern Ireland, United Kingdom. Leslie Evans, born 11 December 1958, is the Permanent Secretary of the Scottish Government. Evans serves as the chief policy advisor to the First Minister and Secretary of the Scottish Cabinet.

Noel Dolan was Nicola Sturgeon’s senior special advisor when she was deputy first ministre under Salmond. He also stated that Evans must go for the “good” of the Scottish civil servant. He added: “The original inquiry had been a disaster. Leslie Evans must resign. She should have resigned, as she has cost the Scottish taxpayer a lot of money.

In 2020 former Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond alleged serious misconduct by Evans in her handling of accusations of sexual misconduct against him. Salmond won a civil action against the Scottish government over its complaints process, which was ruled to be “unlawful”, “procedurally unfair” and “tainted by apparent bias”, and Salmond called for Evans to quit following the ruling. This court case cost the Scottish government more than £600,000. After a High Court case in which Salmond was cleared of allegations of rape, details of memos sent by Evans emerged. She stated “We may lose the battle, but we will win the war.”, in relation to the case against Salmond, which he argued did not “seem the words of an impartial public servant”, and he suggested it was evidence she had been responsible for the unlawful and biased complaints process.

It was announced in May 2015 that Evans would become the first woman to be appointed Permanent Secretary of the Scottish Government. She assumed the role on July 2015. Evans, who was paid between PS160,000 to PS164,999 by Scotland’s Government in 2015, is now one of the highest-paid people in British public service.
