Anthony Marsh's salary came in for heavy criticism after it was revealed he was on £232,000 a year – £90,000 more than the Prime Minister – for splitting his week between the West Midlands and the East of England Ambulance Service Trust.
Now it has emerged the dual role will end almost a year earlier than planned as the East of England trust will begin looking for a permanent chief executive in January.
When that happens, the £50,000 a year pay 'uplift' Mr Marsh was given, will end and he will revert to working full time for the West Midlands trust, which covers Shropshire.
