Waitaki Mayor Gary Kircher says five names are on the shortlist to replace Waitaki District Council chief executive Michael Ross.

In February, Mr Ross said he would leave the post he had held since January 2004 in June, six months ahead of schedule.

The mayor's report to council states the two top candidates as chosen by the executive committee will undergo a "comprehensive interview" by the full council.

An appointment is expected in June.
