Murweh Shire Council has reportedly terminated the services of its CEO Sabine Taylor six months into her term.
According to the ABC, the councillor voted unanimously to part ways with Ms Taylor on Thursday, with immediate effect.
Ms Taylor is understood to be seeking legal advice.
A council spokesperson confirmed Ms Taylor’s departure and advised that director of economic development John Nicholson had been appointed as Acting CEO.
Murweh is the second Queensland council in as many months to terminate its CEO during their probation period, after Aurukun Shire parted ways with Kate Rosier in July.
